Facnor FXT+4500 Drum Furler For Flying Sail
- A drum furler easy to use and reliable in cruising or racing.
- Adapted to sailboat from 9.5 to 16m (31′ to 55′).
- For Code sail of 100m²/1076ft² maximum.
- (max 50m²/538ft² staysail).
- Unique captive quick-release pin.
- Maintenance free units (sealed bearings).
- Mechanisms designed as an ?in/out? system for so-called flying sails. Possibility of customizing attachments (solid sheave, 2-to-1 block?).
The standard kit of the FXT+ 4500 furler includes :
- One classic drum in anodized aluminum.
- One swivel CNC machined in a solid anodized aluminum block, including neoprene anti-impact cover with high-visibility marking.
- One snapshackle as bottom drum attachment (optional SSH+4500 solid sheave as alternative).
- One shackle as top swivel attachment (optional SB4500 2-to-1 block as alternative).
After more than 20 years of experience in designing and manufacturing code sail furlers, the FXT+ range is a good solution for sailors who opt for a classic drum with discontinuous furling line:
- Intuitive manipulation to connect the sail to the mechanisms thanks to a fitted-in, compact and unique captive quick-release pin.
- Rotation transmitted through an anti-torsion luff rope.
- Optional – slided inside the luff tape and fitted with thimble on each end (FCI4500 s-s thimbles and FRC s-s clamps also in option).
