Sailing - Winches

Large Wincher PairThe Barton Wincher is a specially designed rubber molding that converts your standard winch into a self-tailing winch.  This tried and tested design has been a firm favorite with Sailors for many years.The Wincher works by gripping the rope when the drum is fully loaded and under tension, peeling off the line from the underside of the Wincher as you winch to give a true self-tailing motion.Cleating is achieved by locking the sheet into the Wincher’s ribbed central groove.Technical Specifications: Fits Drum Diameter - 3" to 3.5" (76.2 to 88.9 mm) Maximum Rope Diameter - .47" to .55" (12 to 14 mm) Weight - 9.8 oz (278 g)  *Sold as a Pair Brochure (pdf)

Carbo OneTouch Locking Winch HandleLightweight and fast-acting, the Carbo OneTouch ball bearing locking winch handle makes grinding winches easy! Racers will maneuver faster and cruisers will have confidence in a reliable and easy-to-use winch handle. The Carbo OneTouch locks in and out of the winch using its patented locking mechanism and ergonomically designed grab bar. It only takes one hand to set or release the handle—squeeze anywhere along the grab bar with your palm to unlock; release the bar for a secure lock. Harken added SpeedGrip handle technology to the OneTouch for fast and efficient winching. Its independent swivel between the ball bearing knob and hand-grip allows fast trimming using the palm for low-loads, and powerful two-handed grinding when loads are high. At just 590 g (20.8 oz), the Harken Carbo OneTouch is built to be strong but lightweight. The grab bar and main handle are made of the same tough material as our Carbo block line: high-strength, fiber-reinforced composite, UV-stabilized for excellent protection against long-term exposure to saltwater and sun. The handle and grab bar are cross-ribbed and braced for enhanced stiffness. An aluminum grip rod mates seamlessly to a forged aluminum handle insert to manage bending stresses. The black hard-coat-anodized octagonal drive gear is also integrated into the molding process, resulting in an extremely strong, one-piece structure. Its locking pins are tough 316 marine-grade stainless steel. OneTouch is a registered trademark of Donald J. Steiner.Features: Molded urethane knob for comfortable feel and better grip when palming the handle. Handles feature an independent swivel between the knob and handle to keep the wrist straight and arms in the best power position while grinding. The patented locking mechanism features two stainless steel pins that automatically retract when the handle’s full-length grab bar is squeezed, and extend when it is released for a solid, secure lock. Handles feature a ball bearing grip that efficiently transmits power into the winch. Owner's Manual (pdf)

40ST Compact Below Deck Electric Full Stainless Winch Variable Speed - 12VAndersen Compact Motor™ electric winches allow you to hoist and trim sails at the push of a button regardless of physical strength, so any crew member can easily and safely trim sails and control lines.Ease of installationThe Andersen Compact Motor™ electric winch is available in two formats for either Above Deck or Below Deck motor placement. Motor gearbox and controller are integrated into one compact unit with no extra control box necessary. Simplified electrical installation requires just the connection of positive and negative power cables to the motor terminals and the connection of the push button using the included output cable.Efficient, variable speedThe Andersen Compact Motor™ is a brushless DC motor carefully matched to a low profile planetary gearbox which requires less space for installation, and draws considerably less current than traditional motor/gearbox configurations. Available in 12 volt and 24 volt models, Compact Motor™ electric winches operate at variable speed in proportion to the pressure applied to the push button, for smooth and quiet operation.Illuminated "intelligent" push buttonCompact Motor™ winches are supplied with a push button with integrated LED which illuminates when power to the winch system is on. The push button incorporates a hinged safety cover to prevent inadvertent winch operation and is water resistant rated to IP67. The push button also acts with the controller to flash status codes that assist with trouble shooting in the event of overload or where other system protection intervention occurs. A cable for connection of the push button is included for convenient installation.Built-in protection- Integrated overload protection - The controller is pre-set to stop the winch if the maximum pull load is exceeded. Operation can resume within a few seconds when the load returns below the limit.- Thermal overload protection - The motor is fitted with a thermal cutout that disables the motor in case of overheating; it automatically resets after the temperature returns to normal.As with all ANDERSEN Winches™, our Compact Motor™ Electric Winch features the exclusive stainless steel Power Rib™ drum for maximum power and extended line life. This model also uses our exclusive self-tailing device that automatically accommodates a wide range of different line sizes.Specifications Drum: 2-15/16 in. (75 mm) Base: 6 in. (152 mm) Height: 7-1/16 in. (180 mm) Line Entry: 3-1/8 in. (79 mm) Line Size: 5/16-9/16 in. (8-14 mm) Weight: 40 lbs. (18 kg) Max Deck Thickness: 2-1/8 in. (54 mm) Motor Depth: 7-1/16 in.

12 ST FS Self-Tailing Manual Single Speed Winch - Full StainlessPower Rib™ANDERSEN Winches feature the Power Rib™. Unlike other winches with abrasive drum surfaces, ANDERSEN winch drums have vertical ribs running up the surface. This combined with the smooth polished stainless steel gives a maximum grip and minimum wear on ropes, reducing the replacements costs of sheets and halyards. What’s more, the Power Rib principle simply makes sailing more pleasurable. Fewer turns on the winch make tacking easier. Sheets can be gently eased out without harsh snatching and the risks of overrides and jammed sheets are significantly reduced. The grip provided by the ribs will remain the same year after year, unlike many other winches with an abrasive or sandpaper-like surface. Such surfaces have a tendency to wear down both ropes and themselves.Power RatioPower Ratio is the mechanical advantage of the winch and is calculated as follows:length of handle x gear ratio           radius of drumThe pull of the winch is based on the Power Ratio and not just on the physical size of the winch or the diameter of the drum. The Power Ratio is used to determine the load the winch may handle as follows: pull of handle (kg x Power Ratio = pull of winch (kg).This means that by applying a load of 10kg, using a 10" standard handle, on a Power Ratio 40:1 winch, the winch can pull 400kg, assuming that the winch is 100% efficient. This is not possible in practice as the efficiency is reduced by internal mechanical friction losses.Specifications: Drum Ø D: 2-3/4" Base Ø B: 4-1/2" Height H: 5" Line Entry L: 1-3/4" Line Size: 5/16-9/16" Weight: 5.7lb Gear ratio 1st speed: 1.3 : 1 Power ratio 1st speed: 9.5 :1 Quick Guide (pdf)
