The standard kit of the FLT-D6 furler includes:
- One continuous line drum in anodized aluminum and CNC machined in a solid block, protected by a composite/carbon housing, low profile drum.
- One swivel also in anodized aluminum and CNC machined in a solid block, including neoprene anti-impact cover with high-visibility marking.
- One halyard swivel also in anodized aluminum and CNC machined.
- One articulated toggle fitted underneath the drum and above the swivel.
- One pair of holed link plates aassembled above the drum for adjusting the forestay length.
The structural FLT-D6 furler, used as a in/out furling system (no reefing) insures comfort, reliability and easy operation:
- Monoblock conception of the mechanisms for more sturdiness and long-lasting.
- Rotation transmitted through a monotoron wire – not delivered.
- Safe furling thanks to a single furling line. Once tightly furled in with the discontinuous line secured into a cleat, the sail cannot furl out.
- Simply hoist and lower your sail thanks to the halyard swivel.
