Maxwell HRC10-8 - 12 Volt Horizontal Anchor Winch/Windlass

1000W / 12 Volt Motor - Suits 8mm SL Chain and Nylon Rope 14-16mm

Suits boats up to 14 metres (46 feet)

*** Ship Australia Wide ***

The Maxwell HRC10-8 12 Volt Horizontal Anchor Winch/Windlass has a 1000 Watt motor and is suitable for most boats up to 14 metres (46 feet) LOA. It is ideal for 8mm SL chain and 14-16mm nylon rope, and it changes easily from one to another.

This model has a side Chain Wheel but not a separate rope drum. The Chain Wheel suits  both 8mm SL chain and nylon rope 14-16mm.

Maxwell's all new HRC10 Horizontal Series represents yet another breakthrough in performance and anchor handling excellence. These horizontal, fully automatic rope and chain windlasses have been designed to meet the demands for use on larger vessels which require a completely above deck installation system. The Maxwell HRC10-8 series can flawlessly handle rope sizes 14-16mm and chain sizes up to 8mm (5/16 inch) in size, including the spliced area.

Maxwell once again leads the market in innovative thinking with the introduction of their latest Wave Design™ chainwheel. Incorporating 2 new unique design concepts, the Wave Design greatly improves the handling and control of the rope and chain spliced rode. The outer ribs of the chainwheel are angled slightly forward ensuring that the rope and the chain are smoothly guided in the wheel during anchor retrieval. As the rope pulls into the wheel, the opposite facing inner ribs grip the rope in an undulating manner, securing the rope more firmly in a 'wave pattern' action.  This method of rope clamping is far superior to the traditional 'jam cleat' manner of holding the rope compared to all other products on the market. Not only does this Maxwell Wave Design™ hold the rope more securely, it is also kinder on the rope resulting in increased longevity of your anchor rode.

Includes:

• Two speed motor motor with housing and gearbox
• Chain Wheel (Wave Design)
• Integrated wiring
• Reversing Solenoid
• Emergency Release Handle
• Installation manual and template for an easy installation.

Features:

• The all new HRC10-8 fully automatic horizontal windlass series is designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 8mm (5/16 inch) short link chain and 14mm to 16mm three strand or 8-braid (plait) nylon rope.
• The aesthetically pleasing above deck design, evolved from the philosophy of form follows function, encapsulates the motor and drive in a two part watertight case, saving space below deck.
• The two part case consists of a die cast, marine-grade hard anodised alloy front section and a rugged and easily removable composite motor cover aft section.
• This two piece watertight case allows for quick and easy, on-deck, routine maintenance.
• Simple bolt down installation ensures effortless and rapid on-deck installation and set up.
• The stainless steel pressure arm always exerts maximum control pressure on the rode (rope, splice or chain).
• The new and revolutionary patented Wave Design™ chainwheel is able to accommodate a wide range of chain pitch differences, within the specified chain size diameters, suitable for use with the HRC10 Series.
• The unique Maxwell wrap around™ horizontal chainwheel ensures that more than 90° of the wheel is used, allowing greatly improved rope and chain handling compared with competitor designs.
• The HRC10 works just as effectively with all-chain rodes for those who desire the added security and holding power of an all-chain anchor system.
• The integral chain pipe and 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 and emergency crank recovery of the rode and anchor if required.
• The sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard anodised, alloy gearbox provides high efficiency output drive via precision worm and wormwheel.
• integrated wiring for quick electrical installation.

Options: (see links below)

• Maxwell Deck Switches and Circuit Breakers
• Maxwell Helm Up/Down Panels                       
• Maxwell Chain and Rode Counters
• Hand Held Remote Controllers (Wired and Wireless) - (all brands)
• Maxwell Reversing Solenoids
• Rope/Chain Kits – Pre-spliced for smooth operation
• Chain Stoppers
• Snubbing Devices

Important: Maxwell windlasses must be used in conjunction with a chain stopper and/or alternative snubbing device to take the load off the windlass while laying at anchor. The chain stopper and alternative snubbing system should also be used to secure the anchor in the fully raised position while under way.
