Chain Compressor Devil Claw Roller with Base
Description
Suited to larger yachts and chain sizes, chain compressors protect the windlass from unnecessary load and strain by transferring the load of the chain through two clamping arms when at anchor. Tensioning of the hand wheel tightens the arms clamping the chain securely. A devils claw system is incorporated into the assembly and is applied when the anchor is stowed, as opposed to when at anchor, to ensure the anchor cannot be accidentally released while under way. The windlass clutch and band brake should be engaged as well for added safety.. Finished in choice of chromed bronze, traditional polished bronze, highly polished or bead blasted 316L stainless steel.
These units will suit chain up to 50mm U2
Variations in this range include Chain Compressor Devil Claw Roller Arrangement and Integral Chain Compressor Devil Claw Roller Arrangement (rasied base optional).

Remarkable Equipment
“This remarkable equipment has come out of a little place called Tasmania, which half the world doesn’t even know exists; out of a place called Kingston, which people definitely don’t know of; and its sold by these funny Tasmanians who are dogmatic, passionate and brilliant at what they do. They’re the ultimate product”
