Vetus P105894 - Maxwell Windlass RC12-HD, 13mm Hydraulic GT 120bar, 200TDC ACW, with Drum

Maxwell RC12-HD 13 mm Hydraulic Windlass GT 120 bar 200TDC ACW with Drum (Vetus P105894)

The Maxwell RC12-HD 13 mm Hydraulic Windlass with Drum (Vetus P105894) is engineered for dependable marine anchoring in hydraulic installations. Built on Maxwell’s robust RC12HD vertical platform, this windlass is designed for handling 10 mm–13 mm short-link chain and compatible nylon rope using a hydraulic GT gear transmission rated at approximately 120 bar. The model features 200 mm total deck clearance (200TDC) and an anticlockwise (ACW) operational configuration, and includes an integrated drum for efficient combined chain and rope rode handling on recreational and commercial vessels. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
