Maxwell 1000 Windlass Supplier - Anchor Chains

The Maxwell 1000 Windlass is a robust and reliable anchor handling system designed for medium-sized vessels. It features a powerful motor and smooth operation for efficient anchor chain retrieval and deployment. Compatible with various anchor chains, it ensures secure and hassle-free anchoring in diverse marine conditions.

The Maxwell 1000 Windlass is designed for boats up to 50 feet, with a pulling capacity of 1,000W (12V) or 1,500W (24V). It supports chain sizes of 8mm-12mm (5/16"-1/2") and rope diameters up to 16mm (5/8"). The windlass is typically constructed from marine-grade stainless steel or aluminum for corrosion resistance.

Anchor chains compatible with the Maxwell 1000 are usually Grade 30 or Grade 40 high-test steel, with sizes ranging from 8mm to 12mm (5/16"-1/2"). Chain links are hot-dip galvanized for durability. Buoyancy is minimal due to the chain's metal composition, but nylon or polyester rode sections can be added for partial buoyancy. Chain weight is approximately 1.5-3.5 kg/m depending on size.

Lubrication viscosity for the windlass gearbox typically requires SAE 80W-90 or equivalent marine-grade oil. Seals and bearings are designed for high-load, low-friction operation in saltwater environments.
