VWC2500 Vertical Windlass & Chain Pipe 12V - 3/8" BBB Chain Only

The VWC Series is designed for automatic vertical handling of chain-only anchor rodes while offering an independent capstan for the retrieval of a secondary rope and chain rode or to assist with docking procedures.

Features:

Fully automatic single or dual direction chainwheel operation
High-quality finish on above deck components, manufactured from marine grade stainless steel (AISI 316), for long term durability
Integral chain pipe and stripper are aligned for virtually jam-tree operation providing automatic feed of chain into and out of the anchor locker
Port and starboard chain pipes for twin installations (Sizes 2500 and above only.)
Cone-type brake/clutch mechanism permits manual 'free fall' anchoring; Cone clutches, unlike dog clutches, provide smooth progressive engagement ensuring safe and precise operator control
Chainwheel locking pawl
Clutch disengagement of the chainwheel enables independent rope hauling from any direction, using the Max-gripTM snag-tree warping drum for positive control of all ropes
Simple through deck installation by modular design and precise alignment of gearbox to the topworks utilising marine-grade stainless steel bolts
Anodized aluminium gearbox and spacer tube on all models
Heavy duty, dual direction motor, designed for marine winches
