Harken Winches

Harken aluminium self-tailing Radial winches for cruising and performance yachts, with size-specific diagonal drum ribs for grip with reduced rope wear. Available across single- and two-speed models for different sheet and halyard loads.

Harken Radial Line winches have successfully balanced the need for a secure grip and line longevity with smooth, controlled easing while under load. Details sailors will appreciate: smaller winches that carry higher loads, stress-free seasonal maintenance, and one-person installation. Plain-top winches are best handled by two crew—one to trim and one to tail the line.

Harken Radial Line winches have successfully balanced the need for a secure grip and line longevity with smooth, controlled easing while under load. Details sailors will appreciate: smaller winches that carry higher loads, stress-free seasonal maintenance, and one-person installation. The self-tailing mechanism on the winch means that one crew member can quickly and easily trim or raise sails.

The Radial winch drum’s gripping surface is shaped for each winch size and drum material and features diagonal ribs (rather than textured abrasive materials) to maximize gripping power and greatly reduce line wear. Plain-top winches are best handled by two crew—one to trim and one to tail the line.

Simple to install, easy maintenance Stud mounting bolts allow fast installation.  Adjustable stripper arm integrated into winch top for safer operation Stripper arm completely covers rotating winch top, preventing fingers and clothing from catching in moving parts. Adjusts to multiple positions after the winch is mounted to optimize line exit. Maximum holding power for high-tech line Sandblasted drums and ribs optimized for halyard and sheeting applications using small-diameter, high-strength line.  High-strength, lightweight High-strength composite roller and ball thrust bearings reduce friction under load.
