A PTFE perimeter strip ensures the unloaded furling line can't fall from the drum or become snagged.įurlers and top swivels feature a factory sealed, maintenance free bearing. When deploying the sail the continuous furling line self-ejects from the grip zone, remaining stationary for smoother, safer operation with minimum rope wear. Drums incorporate a sophisticated furling line groove profile and cross-hole geometry to grip the furling line securely when furling. The range matches drum diameters to load ratings providing the optimum balance between speed and ease of furling. Ronstan furlers are available with top-down adapters or in dedicated top-down models with practical accessories such as top swivel lashing pins to provide the perfect solution. Racers too can benefit from the characteristics of top-down to allow superfast retrieval of code zeros by pre-winding the torsion rope and firing the sheet when ready.
