The Maxwell Windlass Gypsy is designed for smooth and efficient handling of anchor chains. It ensures reliable operation with precise chain engagement for secure anchoring. Compatible with various chain sizes, it offers durability and performance in marine environments.

The Maxwell Windlass Gypsy is compatible with anchor chains of sizes 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, and 14mm. The anchor chains are typically Grade 30 or Grade 40 high-tensile steel, with a working load limit (WLL) ranging from 1,000 kg to 3,500 kg depending on size and grade. The chains have a viscosity rating suitable for marine environments, often coated with galvanized or stainless steel for corrosion resistance. Buoyancy is minimal due to the dense metal construction. The gypsy is made of durable materials such as cast iron or stainless steel, ensuring long-term wear resistance and reliable performance.
