Description

• The RC12HD is designed for use with 10 to 13 mm (3/8” to 1/2”) short link chain combined with 16 to 22 mm (5/8” to 7/8”) nylon rope
• This design is particularly well suited to light duty commercial vessels requiring high service speeds, e.g. patrol vessels, as the reduced weight of the rope/chain combination removes weight from the bow
• The 38 mm (1½”) mainshaft is manufactured in high strength corrosion resistant 2205 Duplex stainless steel (AISI 316) and the above deck components in AISI 316 stainless steel providing excellent corrosion resistance and highly polished finish
• Double cone-type brake/clutch mechanism permits ‘Free Fall’ anchoring. Cone clutches, unlike dog clutches, provide smooth progressive engagement, ensuring safe and precise operator control
• The RC12HD features Maxwell’s revolutionary and patented Wave Design™ chainwheel
