RC10 Rope/Chain Windlass
Maxwell’s all-new RC series windlasses follow in the highly successful footsteps of the Freedom, Liberty and HRC fully automatic rope/chain anchor winches. The all new stainless-steel RC10 fully automatic windlass series is designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 10mm (3/8") short link chain and 14mm (9/16") and 16mm (5/8") three-strand or 8-plait rope. Sleek, low-profile and MAX-Grip™ capstan drum versions are available to suit individual user preference.
Simple two-piece installation saves time and money and allows easy retrofitting without disassembly of the windlass. Unique spacer tube design allows installation through virtually any deck thickness and the multiple mounting positions and self-aligning gearbox ensure optimal location of gearbox and motor in virtually all installation situations. Full disassembly capability of topworks using handle provided, a screwdriver and an Allen key. No special tools required.
The RC10 is manufactured from marine-grade 316 stainless steel for long-term durability. The heavy-duty stainless-steel pressure arm, coupled with the unique rope/chain gypsy, is designed to effectively grasp the splice between rope and chain, giving the RC10 an unparalleled level of performance. In combination with a heavy-duty, large wire diameter, stainless-steel pre-loaded spring, the pressure arm pivots on a trouble-free brass bearing, thereby exerting maximum control pressure on the rode and splice.
The RC10 works just as effectively with all-chain rodes for those who desire a low-profile, elegantly styled windlass on their foredeck. Huge, through-deck hawse pipe throat ensures easy entry of the rope/chain rode into and out of the anchor locker. Cone-type clutch/brake mechanism permits manual, free fall anchoring. Sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard-anodized alloy gearbox provides high-efficiency output drive via precision worm and worm wheel.
