The Lewmar DC1 Double Rope Clutch (6-8mm) is a compact and high-performance solution for managing two smaller-diameter lines with maximum efficiency and minimal wear. Designed for lines between 6mm and 8mm, this clutch provides exceptional holding power with a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 300 kg per line. Its Domino Cluster mechanism ensures a secure grip while protecting lines from abrasion, making it ideal for small keelboats, and performance yachts.
Features:
Domino Cluster Technology: Unlike traditional cam-style clutches, the DC1’s advanced Domino Cluster system distributes the load evenly across the rope, reducing wear and increasing durability. This unique design tilts and flexes the line rather than crushing it, ensuring a secure yet rope-friendly hold.
Dual-Line Configuration: The double layout allows for the secure management of two control lines, making it perfect for halyards, reefing lines, or other essential functions where space and efficiency are key.
Smooth & Controlled Release: The pull-back handle design, combined with Lewmar’s patented clutching system, enables precise and gradual release—even under load—giving sailors greater control over their lines.
Compact & Durable Construction: Designed with stainless steel fairleads to reduce friction and extend lifespan, the clutch is lightweight yet robust, ideal for demanding sailing conditions.
