VW 1500 HYD 5/16" HT OR 3B CHAIN

The VWC Series is designed for automatic vertical handling of chain-only anchor rodes while offering an independent capstan for the retrieval of a secondary rope and chain rode or to assist with docking procedures. It features fully automatic single or dual direction chainwheel operation, high-quality marine-grade 316 stainless steel and chromed bronze components for durability, and an integral chain pipe and stripper for jam-free operation. The cone-type brake/clutch mechanism allows for manual "Free Fall" anchoring with smooth engagement. The design permits simple through-deck installation and includes an anodized aluminum gearbox and spacer tube. It is powered by a heavy-duty, dual-direction motor designed for marine winches.
