The standard kit of the FX+ 4500 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 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)
Opt for the optional « Start & Go » system, a ratchet in s/s duplex enabling a temporary stop when furling in and a self-locking both clockwise and anti-clockwise (Facnor patent).
The FX+4500 ?in/out system? offers comfort in sail handling, reliability and easy manipulation:
- ?Monoblock? conception of the mechanisms for more sturdiness and long-lasting
- Intuitive manipulation to connect the sail to the mechanisms thanks to a fitted-in, compact and unique captive quick-release pin
- Bottom drive unit with largely dimensioned diameter for a strong torque and therefore more comfortable handling (see also optional DC4500 drum cover)
- 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)
- Easy installation of the furling loop (s-s guide + drum notch), discover Facnor SPECIAL GRIP loops for an efficient rotation of the drum and the removable fairleads TSL25/28
