As the leading ship supplier in Ross Dependency, Box Anchor Chain, we specialize in delivering high-quality Maxwell Rc8 Windlass with unmatched speed and reliability. Trusted by shipowners and masters worldwide, our team ensures your vessel gets everything it needs — on time, every time.
The Maxwell RC8 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 management. The anchor chains are durable, corrosion-resistant, and compatible with the RC8 Windlass for secure anchoring.
The Maxwell RC8 Windlass is designed for boats up to 60 feet, with a pulling capacity of 1,700W (12V) or 2,200W (24V). It accommodates chain sizes of 8mm-12mm (5/16"-1/2") and rope diameters up to 16mm (5/8"). The windlass operates at a retrieval speed of approximately 12 meters per minute (40 feet per minute).
Anchor chains for the RC8 are typically made of galvanized steel, with common grades being Grade 30 (Proof Coil) or Grade 40 (High Test). Chain sizes range from 8mm to 12mm (5/16"-1/2"), with a working load limit (WLL) of 1,000-2,500 kg (2,200-5,500 lbs) depending on size and grade. The viscosity of lubricants used in maintenance should be ISO VG 68 or equivalent.
Buoyancy of anchor chains is negligible due to their steel construction, but synthetic rope alternatives may offer slight buoyancy. The windlass housing is constructed from corrosion-resistant materials such as marine-grade aluminum and stainless steel for durability in saltwater environments.
