Ubi Maior Top Down Furlers - FRm
FR AVVOLGITORI are extremely reliable and functional for managing bow sails, both code zero and gennaker. This complete line ranges from products suited to dinghy and smaller vessels, right up to larger units and custom designed products. The drum and head are machined from a single piece of aluminum 6082T6 and contain cylindrical roller thrust bearings featuring the best characteristics for this use. Indeed, they move exceptionally well (which is fundamental for the swivel) and boast optimal load distribution. The drum is located in a drum guard made of Nylon 3d printed, which provides an excellent cushion against possible impact with the boat and guarantees the loop location. The loop is easy to insert thanks to the frontal gate and the purpose made niche on the drum. The drum flue geometry guarantees a perfect grip when winding, while also allowing for easy desingagement when opened so that the sail can be opened from the cockpit simply by activating the sheet line. Finally, the FR range includes essential accessories for any furler/sail system, including: Anti-twist rope thimbles, FRrd, Quick release snap shackles FRgm (commercial product), Headboards for double stay systems, FRds. 2:1 and 3:1 blocks are available for furlers with high working loads.
