  • Fully automatic rope / chain windlass is designed to effortlessly retrieve and deploy 1/4" (6mm / 7mm) chain spliced to 1/2" (12 mm) three strand or 8-brait (plait) rope
  • The ingeniously designed rope/chain gypsy (chainwheel) is able to accommodate a wide range of chain pitch differences within the specified chain size diameters suitable for use with the RC8 Series
  • Full disassembly capability of topworks utilising handle provided and an Allen key
  • The RC8 Series is manufactured from marine-grade 316 stainless steel for long term durability
  • The heavy duty stainless steel pressure arm is designed to effectively help grasp the rope/chain splice, giving the RC8 an unparalleled level of performance
  • In combination with a heavy duty, large wire diameter, stainless steel preloaded spring, the pressure arm always exerts maximum control pressure
  • The RC8 works just as effectively with all-chain rodes for those who desire a Low Profile, elegantly styled windlass on their foredeck

All RC Series windlasses are fitted with Maxwell's unique Wave Design™ chainwheel

  • This patented rope/chain wheel incorporates two unique design concepts that greatly improve the handling and control of the rope/chain spliced rode
  • The outer ribs of the chainwheel are angled slightly forward ensuring that the rope and the chain are smoothly guided in the wheel during anchor retrieval
  • As the rope pulls into the wheel, the opposite facing inner ribs grip the rope in an undulating manner, securing the rope more firmly in a 'wave pattern' action that is far superior to the traditional 'jam cleat' manner of holding the rope
  • Not only does this Wave Design™ hold the rope more securely, it is also kinder on the rope resulting in increased longevity of your anchor rode
  • Wave Design™ Chainwheel Is fitted to all RC Series windlasses, designed for anchor rodes with any marine grade chain, G4, BBB, Proof Coil and Metric

Great and Useful
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Silver
This is a great and very functional paper towel holder. It is heavy enough to stay where you put it and the tension arm holds the paper towels really well so that you can actually tear one off with one hand. There is a ring on the top of the holder so, if you have two hands free you could hold on to that for stablizing the holder but it really isn't necessary because it stays in place really well. The only advise I would give is to be sure that the next paper towel on the roll is a bit past the tension arm so that you don't have to adjust the roll to get the arm to hold the next towel. This is a great invention and I'm so happy that I have found it.

Stable and attractive

Love the black, it matches my kitchen well. Very sturdy, more so than the Simple Human one that the tension arm broke. A very good product.

Passed (my) test: 4/5
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Black
I used to have a paper holder affixed to the wall. Obviously, it was stable but not always delivering the size of paper towel that we expected. After redoing my kitchen backsplash that I didn’t want to pierce through just yet, i decided to go for an countertop paper towel holder, and i picked this one (in black) Reviews were decent and i liked that it has an “arm” to hold the paper. So, i put it to the test (see video) Here are my conclusions: 1) Solid built and weighted at the bottom + rubber to prevent the holder from moving around while pulling the paper 👍🏼 2) out of five trials at pulling the paper, i only had one fail (see video) which is still a better ratio than with my wall holder. 👍🏼 3) There are probably cheaper holders on the market, but most of them are not stable and require two hands to pull paper. This one is easy of use with only one hand which is useful while cooking. 4) i like that this holder comes in different colors, to match the kitchen decoration. 5) The hook at the top of the holder is convenient to carry the holder out of the kitchen, to the dining table for example.

Great Product - Exactly what I was looking for
Item Package Quantity: 1, Color: Black
Great product. Love the black color and the look on my counter. The tension arm does its job and the product is stable when taking a paper towel off the roll.
