Barton Marine Medium Wincher Pair [21642]

The Barton Medium Wincher Pair is a game - changer for sailors. These specially crafted rubber moldings transform your regular winch into a self - tailing one. This well - proven design has been a top choice among sailors for ages. When the drum is fully loaded and under tension, the Wincher grips the rope firmly. As you operate the winch, it peels the line from the underside, delivering a genuine self - tailing action. Cleating is a breeze, simply lock the sheet into the Wincher’s ribbed central groove. Technical specs: it fits drum diameters from 2.75' to 3' (70 to 80 mm), accommodates rope diameters from.39' to.55' (10 to 14 mm), and weighs 7.87 oz (223 g). It's sold as a pair. Brochure (pdf).

Using the Barton Medium Wincher Pair is easy. First, install the rubber moldings on your standard winch. When you're using the winch and the drum gets fully loaded with rope under tension, the Wincher will automatically grip the rope. As you turn the winch, the line will peel off from the underside, giving you a self - tailing effect. To cleat the rope, just lock it into the ribbed central groove. Remember, these are designed to fit drum diameters between 2.75' and 3' and rope diameters from.39' to.55'. When it comes to maintenance, keep the Winchers clean. You can use a mild soap and water to wash them occasionally. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they might damage the rubber. Also, store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
