Harken Radial Winches
We have reached a new level of performance with the introduction of our
Radial Winch line. Details you’ll like include reduced wear on the line:
the gripping surfaces of Radial Winches are shaped and do not depend on
friction to hold the line. Also, we’ve completely covered the winch
tops so fingers and clothing don’t get caught in moving parts. Seasonal
maintenance is now exceptionally easy— the top lifts out as a single
unit, making reassembly quick and mistake-free.
The Radials grip
works like a screw which drives the line downwards when easing to keep
it on the part of the drum where you have best control. The composite
roller bearings and bushings reduce friction under load, have excellent
corrosion resistance and doesn't require lubrication. This also means
that the winch is 25 to 50 percent lighter than conventional winches.
Why does the chrome radial winch have a different grip pattern than an aluminum radial?
Chrome
has a more slippery finish than aluminum, so the ribs on chrome Radial
winches are spaced closer together to increase friction. This optimizes
your grip for trimming as well as for easing the sail.
