| Andersen Sailboat Stainless Steel Winches |
 1. Drive shaft of stainless AISI 329.
2. Adjustable self tailing arm through 360 degrees.
3. The self tailing arm is curved to give a fair lead - due to the holding power on drum the friction is minimized.
4. Stainless steel ball bearing to carry vertical and horizontal loads from drum.
5. The upper ball bearing and the lower roller bearing cage are designed to have the maximum distance apart giving increased support for the drum while increasing efficiency.
6. Large diameter roller bearing to absorb drum loads and increase efficiency.
7. Easy service with captive pawls and springs.
8. Pawls made from cold pressed stainless steel bar 316 which gives unbreakable pawls.
9. Coiled spring extends the lifetime of the spring considerably.
10. Base plate is made from aluminum bronze which is twice as strong as standard bronze giving a light, stiff and strong construction which again increases efficiency.
11. Self tailing system adjusts automatically to suit most rope sizes.
12. Lightweight stainless steel drum with Power Rib gives superior grip on the sheet without causing excessive wear.
13. Drum surface with Power Rib generates horizontal friction and a highly polished surface minimizes vertical friction, allowing rope to slide easily upwards the drum.
14. Lightweight stainless steel drum, combined with the internal construction of aluminum bronze, results in the Andersen winch being of similar or less weight than an aluminum winch.
15. Due to the materials used in the winch service is only required every second year under normal use.

Andersen Standard Winches
Small sailboats need quality winches just as much as large sailboat. The crew of the small yachts must also economize on manpower, with the need for positive sheet adjustment. With this in mind Andersen Standard Winches are of the same uncompromising quality as the larger sizes in the range. Manufactured in stainless steel, they all feature the Power Rib to facilitate winching in any conditions and circumstances. Order online.
Andersen Self Tailing Winches
 All Andersen self tailing winches have Power Rib drums, the unique vertical ribs provide extra grip, reducing the number of turns required compared to the other drum designs. The highly polished smooth surface of the drum ensures long life of sheets, whilst improving the "sliding" characteristics of the rope up the drum. Order online.
