Marine wind vanes are devices mounted on vessels to indicate wind direction, aiding in navigation and sail adjustment. They help sailors optimize course and speed by providing real-time wind data. Essential for traditional and modern marine navigation, they enhance safety and efficiency at sea.

Size: Typically ranges from 30 cm to 150 cm in length, depending on vessel size.

Grade: Marine-grade stainless steel (316) or aluminum alloy for corrosion resistance.

Viscosity: Not applicable; wind vanes are mechanical devices.

Buoyancy: Non-buoyant; mounted on fixed structures or vessels.

Material: Stainless steel, aluminum, or composite materials for durability.

Weight: Varies by size, typically 1 kg to 10 kg.

Operating Temperature: -30°C to +70°C for standard models.

Wind Speed Range: 5 to 100 knots for accurate readings.

Mounting: Pole, mast, or rail-mounted with adjustable brackets.

Finish: Powder-coated or anodized for UV and saltwater resistance.

Accuracy: ±5° for standard marine wind vanes.

Marine Wind Vanes and Marine Navigation products typically comply with international maritime standards such as ISO, SOLAS, and IMO regulations, depending on the specific product and manufacturer.
