RC8 vertical windlasses
The stainless steel (AISI 316) RC8 Series of automatic rope/chain anchor winches are Maxwell’s mid-range models in the highly success RC Series Windlass Range.
Features and benefits:
- The stainless steel (AISI 316) RC8-6 Series incorporates a chromed bronze chainwheel, designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 6mm/7mm (¼”) chain spliced to 12 mm (½”) 8-brait (plait) rope
- The more powerful RC8-8 can be used with 8mm (5/16”) chain spliced to 14mm or 16mm (9/16” - ⅝”) 8-brait (plait) rope
- The ingenious Wave Design™ rope/chain gypsy (chainwheel) is able to accommodate a wide range of chain pitch differences within the specified chain size diameters suitable for use with the RC8 Series
- A sleek, Low Profile version and a fluted stainless steel (AISI 316) capstan drum version, are available
- Simple two piece installation saves time and money and allows easy retrofitting without disassembly of the windlass
- Unique spacer tube design allows installation through virtually any deck thickness and the multiple mounting positions and self-aligning gearbox ensure optimal location of gearbox and motor in virtually all installation situations
- The RC8 features Maxwell’s revolutionary, patented Wave Design™ chainwheel
- The heavy duty stainless steel (AISI 316) pressure arm is designed to effectively help grasp the rope/chain splice, giving the RC8 an unparalleled level of performance. In combination with a heavy duty, large wire diameter, stainless steel (AISI 316) pre-loaded spring, the pressure arm always exerts maximum control pressure
- The RC8 works just as effectively with all-chain rodes
- Huge, through deck hawse pipe throat ensures easy entry of the rope/chain rode into and out of the anchor locker
- Full disassembly capability of the topworks utilising only the handle provided and an Allen key
- Manual override and ‘Free Fall’, using the emergency crank/clutch handle provided
- Sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard anodised, alloy gearbox provides maximum output via a precision worm and worm wheel
