Windlass & Capstan

Maxwell equipment is born of innovation and backed by years of experience in the manufacture of the world’s highest quality anchor windlasses, ancillary deck gear and stern handling products.

Maxwell’s innovative approach to design resulted in the introduction of automatic rope/chain windlasses to the global marine market to the mid 1990’s. These were a radical departure from all other windlasses, revolutionary in design and technical features. Building on the success of these products, Maxwell has recently designed and developed an exciting new RC range of automatic rope/chain windlasses. But it doesn’t stop there! In the early part of 2012 Maxwell will be releasing their totally new RC12-10 Vertical Series of rope/chain windlasses, complementing the existing, highly acclaimed RC Series windlasses introduced in 2010.

Maxwell has broken the designed barriers yet again with the development of a vertical and horizontal rope/chain windlasses range incorporating two unique and internationally patented features. The new RC and HRC Series attest to Maxwell’s ongoing commitment to innovative design and development.
