Description

The HARKEN Reflex Unit 1 Furling System – 7351.10.18M

The Harken Reflex furling system is truly revolutionary! Unlike previous free-flying sail furlers, which often resulted in partial or uneven furling, our patented Reflex furlers instill sailors with confidence that their free-flying spinnakers and gennakers will furl swiftly and with precise control. The outcome? Sailors find themselves using downwind sails more frequently, even when sailing shorthanded.

• Our compact drive unit sets a new standard for ease of handling compared to other designs. Simply pull the furling line, and the drive unit responds instantly, rotating the torsion cable without any delay or unwanted corkscrewing. This immediate transfer of torque to the head swivel ensures a smooth and uniform roll-up from top to bottom, resulting in a tightly wrapped sail. Lowering the furled spinnaker to the deck is effortless and prepares it for the next hoist.
• The Reflex cable offers superior resistance to corkscrewing compared to traditional textile cables. Its construction, featuring braided stainless steel wire filaments over a braided polyester core, transmits torque to the head swivel through both tension and compression, resulting in faster furling. In contrast, textile cables transmit torque only through tension.
• Additionally, our system is equipped with a quick-release modular T-fitting, allowing a single drive unit to handle multiple sails, further enhancing its versatility and convenience.
