FEATURES
This product includes a drum, a complete set of grey rounded extrusions, a swivel. As a standard, it is delivered with long link plates
Only Profurl technology offers optimal reliability and longevity. Profurl mechanisms are designed to use special bearings which can furl sails under any conditions. They are fully waterproof, protecting them from corrosion and contamination for maximum longevity.
High performance systems • The extrusions are made lighter and stronger thanks to a special alloy (6106). • The ball bearings have an optimized weight / resistance ratio. • The Wichard opening pre-feeder is delivered as standard on Racing models to hoist the sail faster.
Reliable and maintenance free • The ball bearings are fully sealed in a grease bath to increase their working load and prevent corrosion. • Watertightness is achieved by the use of two double lip seals preventing foreign bodies (salt, sand, dust, water) from entering the bearing mechanism. • The not deformable plastic drums withstand impact (e.g: anchor bump, collision) and are resistant to UV.
Trusted materials PROFURL rigorously selects the materials to be used for the manufacturing of the different components: these parts are submitted to bench-tests in order to assess their resistance. • Ball bearings are made of high strength 100 C6 carbon steel. • Drums are made of high impact plastic. • Extrusions use a special alloy (6106) and offer one of the best weight / resistance ratios.
Ease of use PROFURL manual furling systems have been designed to ease operations: • The standard feeder enables to easily hoist the sail by only one crew member. • The optional opening pre-feeder, manufactured by Wichard, smoothly guides the sail’s luff tape into the extrusions, whilst rapidly hoisting the sail. When re-hoisting it, the pre-feeder can be reattached to the luff tape without removing the headsail from the extrusion.
Safety • Double cage arms (exclusive to PROFURL) prevent the furling line from jumping off the drum and allow the furling line to re-align onto the drum by simply pulling on the line. • Stainless steel locking devices are dedicated to boats with a closed to deck fitting. • On the C480, C520, C530 and R480 models, special locking devices have been designed to withstand the higher loads.
Specification Assistance
A size selection guide for Profurl C-Series headsail furlers is available on the Furler Support Page.
Values in the selection guide are approximate - we always recommend working with a qualified professional when specifying the correct furler for your boat, sail, and application.
Tech Tip: Knowing the headstay pin size, wire diameter, and overall system length are the absolute best inputs to choose the correct size for your headsail furler. So, we've created a quick reference guide for you to compare the wire and pin diameters across our headsail furler ranges.
