Innovative Maxwell Chain Wheel:

Maxwell remains at the forefront of the industry with the launch of the Wave Design™ chain wheel. This patented design integrates two distinctive concepts that greatly enhance the handling and control of both rope and chain combinations. The outer ribs of the chain wheel are slightly inclined forward, ensuring that both rope and chain move smoothly during anchor retrieval. As the rope enters the roller, the inner ribs grip it in a wavy configuration, securing it far more effectively than conventional methods, such as the ‘jam cleat’ technique used by other products on the market.

This Wave Design™ not only grips the rope more securely but also reduces wear, thus prolonging the lifespan of your anchor connections.
