Introducing the Maxwell RC10-10 12V Vertical Windlass for 3/8in Chain & 5/8in Line — the powerhouse your foredeck deserves. Built from marine-grade 316 stainless steel and chromed bronze, this windlass delivers reliable, automatic rope/chain handling with rugged durability and refined styling.

• Power and capacity: 12V DC, 1200 W motor, maximum pull/lift 950 kg for confident anchor handling.
• Rope/chain compatibility: Designed to manage 10 mm (3/8") chain and 16 mm (5/8") three-strand or 8-braid rope.
• Premium construction: Stainless steel and chromed bronze with a heavy-duty stainless steel pressure arm and a preloaded spring for consistent grip on rode and splice.
• Rode management: Unique rope/chain gypsy effectively grasps the splice, delivering superior control and performance.
• Easy installation and retrofitting: Two-piece design, spacer tube for deck-thickness variation, multiple mounting positions, and a self-aligning gearbox for optimal motor alignment.
• User-friendly maintenance: Full topworks disassembly with just the provided handle and an Allen key for quick service.
• Deck and entry features: Through-deck hawse pipe with a large entry throat simplifies feeding the rope/chain rode into and out of the anchor locker.
• Protection and reliability: Sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard-anodised alloy gearbox with a precision worm and worm wheel for smooth, dependable operation.
• Comprehensive package: Includes top works, motor/gearbox, and dual-direction solenoid; circuit breakers and switches are available separately to complete your setup.
