Maxwells revolutionary new chainwheel.
Maxwell once again leads the market in innovative thinking with the
introduction of their latest Wave Design chainwheel. This patented rope/chain
wheel incorporates two unique design concepts that greatly improve the handling
and control of the rope/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 that 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 Wave
Design hold the rope more securely, it is also kinder on the rope resulting in
increased longevity of your anchor rode.
Wave Design Chainwheel
Is fitted to all RC Series windlasses, designed for anchor rodes with any
marine grade chain, G4, BBB, Proof Coil and Metric.

designed with the smaller, trailer boat market in mind.
- The in-line, vertical gearbox and motor means quick and easy
installation by either the boat yard or the DIY aftermarket customer.
- An inexpensive, high performance and great looking windlass; the RC6 is
built for durability and years of trouble free use.
- The RC6 is a Low Profile unit (no optional capstan drum).

- The all new stainless steel RC8-6 fully automatic rope/chain windlass is
designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 6mm/7mm (1/4 ) chain spliced to
12mm (1/2 ) three strand or 8-brait (plait) rope.
- The larger stainless steel RC88 can be used with 8mm (5/16 ) chain
spliced to 14mm (9/16 ) three strand or 8-plait rope.
- The ingeniously designed rope/chain gypsy (chainwheel) is able to
accommodate a wide range of chain pitch differences within the specified
chain size diameters suitable for use with the RC8 Series.
- A sleek, Low Profile version and a MAX-grip capstan drum version, with
drum made in chromed bronze, are available.
- Simple two piece installation saves time and money and allows easy
retrofitting without disassembly of the windlass.
- Unique spacer tube design allows installation through virtually any deck
thickness and the multiple mounting positions and self aligning gearbox
ensure optimal location of gearbox and motor in virtually all installation
situations.
- The RC8 features Maxwell s revolutionary, and patented, new Wave Design chainwheel.
- The heavy duty stainless steel pressure arm is designed to effectively
help grasp the rope/chain splice, giving the RC8 an unparalleled level of
performance. In combination with a heavy duty, large wire diameter,
stainless steel pre-loaded spring, the pressure arm always exerts maximum
control pressure.
- The RC8 works just as effectively with all-chain rodes.
- Huge, through deck hawse pipe throat ensures easy entry of the
rope/chain rode into and out of the anchor locker.
- Full disassembly capability of the topworks utilising only the handle
provided and an Allen key.
- Manual override and Free Fall, using the emergency crank/clutch handle
provided.
- Sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard anodised, alloy gearbox provides
maximum output via a precision worm and worm wheel.
RC10:
- The combined stainless steel and chromed bronze RC10 fully automatic
windlass series is designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 8mm (5/16 )
and 10mm (3/8 ) short link chain and 14mm and 16mm (5/8 ) three strand or
8-brait (plait) rope.
- A sleek, Low Profile version and a fluted stainless steel capstan drum
version, are available.
- Simple two piece installation saves time and money and allows easy
retrofitting without disassembly of the windlass. Unique spacer tube design
allows installation through virtually any deck thickness and the multiple
mounting positions and self aligning gearbox ensure optimal location of
gearbox and motor in virtually all installation situations.
- Full disassembly capability of the topworks utilising only the handle
provided and an Allen key.
- The RC10 is manufactured from marine-grade 316 stainless steel and
chromed bronze for long term durability. The heavy duty stainless steel
pressure arm, coupled with the unique rope/chain gypsy, is designed to
effectively grasp the splice between rope and chain, giving the RC10 an
unparalleled level of performance.
- In combination with a heavy duty, large wire diameter, stainless steel
pre-loaded spring, the pressure arm pivots on a trouble free bearing,
thereby exerting maximum control pressure on the rode and splice.
- The RC10 works just as effectively with all chain rodes for those who
desire a Low Profile, elegantly styled windlass on their foredeck.
- 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.
- Sealed oil bath and marine-grade hard anodised, alloy gearbox provides
maximum output via a precision worm and worm wheel.
RC12:
- The RC12 fully automatic windlass series is designed to effortlessly
retrieve and deploy 10mm (3/8 ) short link chain and 16mm (5/8 ) to 20mm
(3/4 ) three strand or 8-Plait rope (RC12-10) and 12mm/13mm (1/2 ) short
link chain and 20mm (3/4 ) three strand or 8-Plait rope (RC12-12).
- With a maximum pull of 1590 kg (3500 lb), and an anchor retrieval rate
of 15m/min (50ft/min), the RC12-12 is one of the fastest and gruntiest
windlasses in its class.
- A sleek, Low Profile version and a fluted stainless steel capstan drum
version, are available.
- The all new RC12 is packed with patented innovative features combined
with Maxwell s traditionally classic aesthetics, but reflecting the modern
form follows function of the highly successful RC6, RC8 and RC10
series windlasses.
- The elegantly designed deckplate and chainpipe cover are manufactured in
polished marine-grade 316 stainless steel, as are the heavy duty pressure
arm, stripper, chainwheel and fluted capstan drum.
- The huge, through deck hawse pipe throat ensures easy entry of the
rope/chain rode into and out of the anchor locker.
- 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 RC12 features Maxwell s revolutionary and patented new Wave Design chainwheel. Refer to RC6 page for more information about this innovative
feature.
- Emergency manual retrieval is made simple and easy with Maxwell s unique
Active Latch Ratchet System operation that prevents backwind of the
windlass during manual hauling of the anchor.
- The Maxwell-designed, all new and innovative black, hard anodised
gearbox provides numerous advantages: - Fast and easy windlass installation
- More corrosion resistant - Easy to maintain and service - Takes up less
room in the anchor locker - 75:1 Ratio (RC12-10) or 100:1 Ratio (RC12-12),
single stage design with less moving parts, for smoother and quieter
operation - Allows for multi-positioning of the gearbox/motor.

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