Harken Reflex Top Down Furler Unit 2 Kit - 20M
$2,792.95
The Harken Reflex furling system is a game changer! The previous
generation of free-flying sail furlers often resulted in partial or
uneven furling. Patent-pending Harken Reflex furlers provide sailors
confidence that their free-flying spinnakers and gennakers will furl
with speed and control. The result? Sailors use downwind sails more
often—even when sailing shorthanded. The compact drive unit is easier to
handle than other designs. Pull the furling line and the drive unit
reacts reflexively to rotate the torsion cable, immediately transferring
torque to the head swivel without unwanted corkscrewing delaying the
response. The head swivel reacts instantly, spinning the sail smoothly
and completely from top to bottom for an even roll-up and super-tight
wrap. The furled spinnaker lowers easily to the deck, ready for the next
hoist.
The Reflex cable is more torsionally resistant to
corkscrewing than the current breed of textile cable. Braided stainless
steel wire filaments over braided polyester core transmit torque to head
swivel through both tension and compression for faster furling (textile
cable transmits through tension only).
The quick-release modular T-fitting allows a single drive unit to handle multiple sails.
