Designed to convert your standard winch into a self-tailing unit, these rubber moldings fit drums with diameters ranging from 3.5 inches to 4 inches (90 to 100 mm). The innovative design ensures a secure grip on ropes with diameters between .47 inches and .63 inches (12 to 16 mm), providing reliable handling during sail adjustments. The Wincher works by gripping the loaded and tensioned rope, peeling it from the underside of the drum as you operate the winch, which results in a true self-tailing motion. This feature simplifies reefing, trimming, and other sail handling tasks, reducing manual effort and increasing safety on deck. The central ribbed groove allows for easy cleating by locking the sheet into place, ensuring the line stays secure even under load. Crafted from durable rubber, the Wincher pair is lightweight at approximately 13.65 ounces (387 grams) for easy handling and installation. Whether upgrading existing equipment or outfitting a new sailboat, these Winchers are a proven solution to enhance your sailing experience with dependable self-tailing functionality. Sold as a pair, they are compatible with a variety of winch sizes and suitable for both recreational and racing vessels, making them a versatile addition to your deck gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFits drum diameters from 3.5 inches to 4 inches (90 to 100 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSuitable for rope diameters between .47 inches and .63 inches (12 to 16 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSelf-tailing design enhances ease of line handling\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003ePeels line from the underside of the drum for smooth operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCentral ribbed groove for secure cleating\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMade of durable rubber for long-lasting performance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eLightweight at approximately 13.65 ounces (387 grams)\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSold as a pair for comprehensive winch compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Barton Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44437349171242,"sku":"99169","price":147.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/2285\/8794\/files\/99169XL.jpg?v=1780923300","url":"https:\/\/atticusgoods.com\/products\/barton-marine-extra-large-wincher-pair-for-3-5-to-4-inch-winch-drums","provider":"Atticus Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
