Lofrans X2 Windlass

Technology, Durability and Performance combined in a single design!

The space available above and under the deck is the primary element to be considered when selecting the proper type of anchor windlass.

Vertical windlasses feature a vertical rotation in relation to the deck which allows a reduced volume above deck as the electric motor and the gear box are sitting in the chain locker.

Also keep in mind that the height between the top of the stacked chain and the underdeck must be 300 mm minimum in order to ensure a fast dropping of the chain in the locker and an optimum performance of the windlass.​

The ´X´ vertical windlasses are suitable for sail and motor boats from 6m to 27m in length. They have different motorization attributes according to each model.

Watertight stainless steel ball bearing in the base (for better functionality and zero maintenance) which is a unique feature in the windlass market.

The clutch is made by two conical discs connected to the main shaft by two parallel planes on the shaft, in order to avoid using keys and allocate the weight load properly.

The electric motor and gearbox are connected by a particular coupling that is made by a socket for easier maintenance.

There is a sensor in the base and a magnet into the gipsy so they can be connected to a chain counter.

Manual override so that the chain or rope can be recovered manually in case of electric function failure.
