SPIN-TEC Roller Furlers are found at http://www.clrmarine.com/572.html
The new standard in roller furling systems Our Triumph 2000 was engineered by sailors, for sailors. With no ball bearings or complicated mechanisms to bind or fail, furling the sail around the forestay is its only job. Our system stands alone instead of being under constant stress from heavy tension loads. The components are only under the compression loads imparted by luff tension. There is virtually no friction or resistance to furling. There is no possibility of halyard wrap because the halyard is removed after the sail is hoisted. And there are no bearing hang-ups from over-tensioned sails. Other systems may look good when new, but after just a few years in a marine environment they have literally rotted away. With Spin-Tec's roller furling systems, all dissimilar metals are completely isolated ensuring there will be no corrosion between the various components of the system insuring long product life. The Difference is in Superior Engineering Spin-Tec's roller furling systems have a number of key features and benefits not found in many other systems on the market. Simple design With a simplified design, there are no complex / moving parts to bind or fail! As a result, the system requires no maintenance. No more worrying about washing off / rinsing out your furling system after each use! Race/Cruise with ease With the R/C 1000 it is simple to use either your racing or your cruising sails without modifications to either the sails or the furler. When cruising, tack your sail to the upper bail on the drum and furl your sail. When racing, tack your sail to the lower bail and use the foil as a racing foil. It's that simple! No ball bearings! The system has no ball bearings. Instead large Delrin bushings are used in the lower assembly and smaller Delrin bushings are used throughout each of the foil sections. System friction is near zero and furling couldn't be easier. Bushing loads are minimal for low wear and resistance. Lastly, Delrin bushings require no maintenance! No halyard swivel! The furling systems have no halyard swivel or ball bearing assemblies (this is the device typically used at the top of the forestay to carry the load of the sail hoist, separate the halyard from the turning sail foil and reduce the possibility of halyard wrap). When using our roller furling system, the halyard is removed from the sail after it has been hoisted eliminating added weight and the need for a swivel aloft. No Opportunities for Corrosion Between Dissimilar Metals The furlers have complete isolation of all dissimilar metals to prevent corrosion. They utilize West System® Epoxy to isolate the stainless steel drum from the aluminum foil sections. Large Stainless Steel Furling Drum Spin-Tec's furling systems includes a large 4" diameter drum to give you maximum power/torque when furling your sail. The drum is completely open (so you can easily deal with a riding turn should one occur). Ever seen an aluminum roller furling drum after several season's of use? You'll love our Stainless Steel Furling Drum that's designed to survive the harsh marine environment. Easy Installation The system is simple to install and comes complete with everything you will need for installation including furling line and lead blocks. There is nothing else to purchase and many of our customers do their own installations. Don't want to install it yourself? Lifetime Warranty All units come with an Lifetime Warranty.
