Versatility: From marine applications to construction and mining, our windlasses are versatile enough to handle a wide range of heavy-duty tasks.
How Windlasses Work
A windlass operates using a pulley system with a barrel around which a chain or cable is wound. The barrel is driven by a gearmotor (in electric models) or a crankshaft (in manual models), providing circular motion to lift heavy weights with minimal energy expenditure. The load is distributed across multiple cables to reduce strain, ensuring efficient and safe operation.
In marine applications, an anchor windlass consists of a chain wheel or mooring drum and a gypsy, driven by gears to multiply force. The gypsy interlocks with the chain links to hoist the anchor, while a brake ensures controlled lowering. A chain stopper or pawl bar secures the anchor rode, preventing damage from high stresses.
Advantages of Electric Windlasses
Ease of Use: Electric windlasses can be operated remotely, reducing physical strain and improving convenience.
Suitability for Various Boat Sizes: Our windlasses are designed to accommodate a wide range of boat sizes and anchor weights.
Efficient Performance: Electric models provide consistent and reliable power, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications.
Choosing the Right Windlass
When selecting a windlass, consider the following factors:
Boat Length and Displacement: Ensure the windlass is compatible with your vessel's specifications.
Pulling Power and Working Load Capacity: Match the windlass to the demands of your specific applications.
Anchor Locker Size: Verify that the windlass fits within your boat's anchor locker.

FAQ
What Is The Principle Of A Windlass?
A windlass uses a pulley system with a barrel around which a chain or cable is wound. The barrel is operated via a belt or crankshaft, which provides circular motion to lift heavy weights with minimal energy expenditure. The load is distributed across multiple cables to reduce strain. An anchor windlass consists of a chain wheel or mooring drum and a gypsy, driven by gears to multiply force. Electric windlasses use a gearmotor instead of manual effort. The gypsy interlocks with the chain links to hoist the anchor, while a brake ensures controlled lowering. A chain stopper or pawl bar secures the anchor rode.
What Are The Advantages Of An Electric Windlass?
Advantages of an electric windlass include ease of use, suitability for a wide range of boat sizes and anchor weights, and the ability to be operated remotely. However, they depend on the boat's electrical system, are more costly compared to manual windlasses, and require regular maintenance.
What Are The Applications Of A Windlass?
Windlasses are primarily used to retrieve rode and lift anchors, but they should not be used to haul seabed. Proper usage involves breaking anchors loose first with engines and securing the rode to cleats or chain stoppers to prevent damage from high stresses. They are essential for marine applications, ensuring safe and efficient anchor handling.
What Features Should Be Considered When Selecting A Windlass?
Key factors to consider include boat length and displacement, windlass pulling power, working load capacity, and anchor locker size. The windlass should match the boat's specifications and the conditions where it will be operated. Additionally, the size, power, and shape of the windlass should be appropriate for the type of boat and its intended use.
What Are The Main Types Of Windlasses?
Windlasses come in two main types: manual and electric. Manual windlasses require physical effort to operate, while electric windlasses use a gearmotor for easier operation. Electric windlasses are more convenient and suitable for larger boats and heavier anchors, but they require a reliable electrical system and regular maintenance.
