Maxwell RC10-10 Capstan Windlass: Versatile Marine Solution

The Maxwell RC10-10 Capstan Windlass is a top-tier marine accessory designed for effortless retrieval and deployment of anchor chains and ropes. Engineered with a combination of stainless steel and chromed bronze, this fully automatic windlass series is built to handle 8mm (5/16") and 10mm (3/8") short link chain, as well as 14mm and 16mm (5/8") three strand or 8-brait rope. The sleek, low-profile design and the fluted stainless steel capstan drum version offer versatility and style to complement any boat. With a simple two-piece installation, you can save time and money while enjoying easy retrofitting without the need to disassemble the windlass.

Technical Specifications and Durability

The RC10 is crafted from marine-grade 316 stainless steel and chromed bronze, ensuring long-term durability in harsh marine environments. The heavy-duty stainless steel pressure arm, combined with the unique rope/chain gypsy, provides an unparalleled level of performance by effectively gripping the splice between rope and chain. This design, paired with a large wire diameter, stainless steel pre-loaded spring, and a trouble-free bearing, exerts maximum control pressure on the rode and splice. The cone type clutch/brake mechanism allows for manual, free-fall anchoring, while the sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard anodized alloy gearbox ensure maximum output through a precision worm and worm wheel.
