Upgraded Motors
Thick copper windings deliver more power with ease and cool faster. Ultra-heavy-duty silver contacts keep the Novawinch contactor running at lower temperatures
-
Upgraded Electronics
“Borrowed” from our PRO Series, we believe everyone should have the very best solenoids and cabling. This is no place to cut corners.
-
Upgraded Gears
Bigger gears and a bigger drive spline are just some of the secrets NOVAWINCH puts into the Stinger™.
-
Upgrade Drive
Extruding the spline that drives the winch drum isn’t the least expensive route but it’s the right way to mate a powerful gearbox and that’s what NOVAWINCH chose for the Stinger™.
-
Upgraded Seals
Out in the bush is the last place you want to find out your IP rating doesn’t hold up. We’ve upgraded our seals to meet and exceed the IP68 rating keeping the elements away.
Built different.
Our new Stinger Series is built for adventure.
Our Stinger+ builds on our Stinger chassis - adding our exclusive onboard wireless/wired controller DUO, extreme protection to IP68 weatherproofing plus upgraded high-visibility Synthetic rope with dashing aluminum hawse.

The Novawinch Stinger 8,000: Elite Recovery. Zero Excuses.
When the trail fights back, sting first. The Novawinch Stinger 8,000 is the ultimate recovery weapon for the modern overlander. Combining a massive 8,000 lb. pull capacity with the lightweight agility of premium synthetic rope, the Stinger is designed for those who demand peak performance without the dead weight. Featuring the revolutionary DUO Remote system, you now have the power of choice and the precision of total control in the palm of your hand.
The Stinger Advantage:
The DUO Remote System: Experience total freedom. Seamlessly switch between the high-frequency wireless mode for spotting from the ridgeline and the plug-and-play wired tether for mission-critical reliability.
Synthetic Edge: Save weight and increase safety. Our high-strength synthetic rope provides incredible breaking strength with a fraction of the mass of steel—easier to handle, faster to rig, and zero recoil risk.
The "Double-Lock" Seal: Don't let the elements stop the mission. With a dual-stage drum seal and a military-grade IP68/69K rating, the Stinger thrives in 1,450 PSI pressure washes and deep-water submersions.
Advanced Thermal Management: The high-torque, series-wound motor is engineered to run cooler for longer. High-speed line pulls won't melt your confidence or your motor.
Silent Power: All-hardened, machined steel planetary gears provide a smooth, quiet, and terrifyingly strong pull every single time.
Technical Superiority:
Max Pull 8,000 lbs of relentless recovery force.
Rope Type Premium Synthetic (Lightweight, High-Safety, Low-Drag).
Braking Automatic Load-Holding
Hardware Corrosion-resistant powder coat with stainless steel accents.

Who is the Stinger winch built for?
The Novawinch Stinger is built for everyone that needs a winch. Novawinch believes everyone should have a winch with high-quality electronics, reliable cut-steel gears with a focus on service life along with motors that cool fast and provide lots of torque. Perfect for the front of your Jeep, truck or trailer, the Stinger is a tool you’ll be proud using again and again.
How or where does the Stinger mount?
Will it fit? YES! We built the Stinger with fitment in mind. Our bolt pattern lines up to the universal pattern found on most winch bumpers and mount plates, 10” x 4.5”. We kept an eye on motor length and gearbox length to make sure that if any winch fits into your build, the Stinger will fit.
