Features

  • HRC6 & HRC8
  • Aesthetically pleasing above deck design, encapsulating the motor and drive in an IP66 rated watertight case, saving space below deck and allowing simple routine maintenance.
  • High-pressure die cast, marine-grade, alloy case is chromate passivated and polyester powder coated for unsurpassed marine protection.
  • Simple bolt down installation ensures effortless and rapid on-deck installation and set up.
  • Proven and patented pressure arm system, within a safe, enclosed design, guarantees trouble free rode transition from rope to chain.
  • Integrated composite nylon, through deck hawse pipe for ease of installation and smooth, snag free operation.
  • High efficiency spur gearbox incorporating a robust non-backwind mechanism.
  • High speed, jam free retrieval of rope and chain controlled from a remote panel mounted Up/down switch.
  • Emergency free fall function in the event of onboard power failure.
  • High quality chrome finished and innovative chainwheels, constructed of marine-grade bronze, are suitable for use with 6 to 8mm (1/4” to 5/16”) short link chain and either 3 strand or 8 plait rope.
  • Heavy duty, dual direction motor incorporating new technology features, including integrated wiring for quick electrical installation, is easily removed for simple routine electric brush maintenance.
  • Trouble free transition from rope to chain by means of an innovative pressure arm system within a safer enclosed design.
  • HRC10
  • The all new HRC10 fully automatic horizontal windlass series is designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 8mm (5/16”) and 10mm (3/8”) short link chain and 14mm (9/16”) and 16mm (5/8”) three strand or 8-brait (plait) rope.
  • The aesthetically pleasing above deck design, evolved from the philosophy of form follows function, encapsulates the motor and drive in a two part watertight case, saving space below deck.
  • The two part case consists of a die cast, marine-grade hard anodised alloy front section and a rugged and easily removable composite motor cover aft section.
  • This two piece watertight case allows for quick and easy, on-deck,routine maintenance.
  • Simple ‘bolt down’ installation ensures effortless and rapid on-deck installation and set up.
  • The stainless steel pressure arm always exerts maximum control pressure on the rode (rope, splice or chain).
  • The new and revolutionary patented Wave Design&tm; chainwheel is able to accommodate a wide range of chain pitch differences, within the specified chain size diameters, suitable for use with the HRC10 Series.
  • The unique Maxwell ‘wrap around’ horizontal chainwheel ensures that more than 90° of the wheel is used, allowing greatly improved rope and chain handling compared with competitor designs.
  • The HRC10 works just as effectively with all-chain rodes for those who desire the added security and holding power of an all-chain anchor system.
  • The intregal chain pipe and huge, through deck hawse pipe throat ensures easy entry of the rope/chain rode into and out of the anchor locker.
  • Cone type clutch/brake mechanism permits manual, ‘free fall’ anchoring and emergency crank recovery of the rode and anchor if required.
  • The sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard anodised, alloy gearbox provides high efficiency output drive via precision worm and wormwheel.
