D2 Rope Clutches
The award winning D2 Rope Clutch, built for big boat applications, allows for an easy and controlled release even at full holding power. Instead of just jamming the rope, the D2 clutch's Domino Cluster mechanism has a longer holding pattern for better grip and less rope wear. Full holding power is retained regardless of line type used, holding equally well on conventional double braids or Spectra, Dyneema, Vectran, and other modern lines. Fits line sizes from 5/16" (8mm) to 9/16" (14mm). Due to its variable geometry handle and the grip pattern of its dominoes, the D2 provides easy, controlled releases under load without fraying your lines.

Comments about Lewmar D2 Rope Clutches:
I installed the D2 Clutch a few weeks ago. Installation was a breeze, although I did have to drill new holes for it. This was a lot easier than I expected, as the D2 allows for a decent amount of play in where the bolts are located.
Nuts, bolts and washers are not supplied.
The instructions are minimal, some more information on feeding the line would have been helpful. What is provided is a small pamphlet which has all necessary information for installation.
This clutch feels solid with no hangups while feeding and no play when under load. I am using 3/8" nylon and am very happy with the results.
