Harken 15 Winch - Self Tailing Single Speed 15STA
The Harken 15STA winch is a self tailing single speed radial winch made of aluminium offering maximum performance and grip. Specially designed for sailors who need lightweight, smaller winches which are extremely strong and return plenty of power.
The drum’s gripping surface is shaped accordingly to each winch size and drum and greatly reduces line wear while under load. The aluminium drum features diagonal ribs rather than other textured abrasive materials, which can be found on similar yacht winches, maximizing the gripping power of this Harken 15 self tailing winch.
When easing, the angle of the ribs stops line from rising, preventing overrides and gives a smooth, controlled release as the line exits the winch. This Harken aluminium winches are both high-strength and lightweight saving between 25 to 50 percent on weight compared to Harken classic winch lines due to the composite self-tailing jaws and skirt.
Composite roller bearings of this Harken winches reduce friction under load and don’t require lubrication. The load-carrying gears and pins are 17-4 PH made of stainless steel for added strength and corrosion resistance.
