All Andersen Winches feature their well-known stainless steel Power Rib ridged drum - which delivers a secure grip yet is easy on lines. These winches are corrosion-free, built to last, and look beautiful on your boat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnlike winches that use rough, abrasive drum surfaces to provide grip, Andersen Winch drums have vertical Power Ribs running up a smooth surface. The ribs provide grip due to their shape, not a textured surface. The result is a winch with exceptional grip yet minimum wear on ropes - reducing the replacement costs of sheets and halyards.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat’s more, the Power Rib principle simply makes sailing more pleasurable —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore grip than other drum designs means fewer turns on the winch - which makes tacking easier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlthough the ribbed surface provides superior horizontal grip, it offers minimal resistance to vertical movement. So, whether cranking or easing, the sheet slides easily up or down the smooth drum, reducing the risk of overrides and jammed sheets. Easing, in particular, can be accomplished smoothly - without harsh shuddering or jerking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eAndersen winches require less maintenance. All pawls and springs are captive, and the design of the winch allows you to easily strip it down for service and greasing in very few steps.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAndersen Winches are made from the best materials available. Within the rigid 316 stainless steel drum, the aluminum-bronze base is approximately 2-1\/2 times stronger than traditional bronze. The pawls, made from machined AISI 316 cold-pressed stainless steel, are so strong that the winches never risk backing off.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAndersen winches save considerable weight on your boat. Due to the high strength of their components allowing for lighter scantlings, Andersen all stainless steel and bronze winches can offer the light weight of an aluminum winch - just pick one up to see! Now compare that to the heavy weight of a traditional chromed bronze winch that you would normally select for its durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote: Special Order Only\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andersen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50253802176821,"sku":"RA2052011300","price":5599.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0151\/7663\/0326\/files\/443387-andersen-winches-ads-ra2052011300-it1-tif.webp?v=1731667907","url":"https:\/\/sailm8.com\/products\/andersen-winches-52st-e1-electric-self-tailing-winch-full-stainless-12v-dc-ra2052011300","provider":"SailM8","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
