Electric jib furler for cruiser-racer sailboats (forestay ø : 10 mm)
NDER 420
Profurl
Ease of use:
Profurl electric reefing-furling systems ensure carefree, effortless cruising using their push-button operation. The self-locking, non-reversible mechanism prevents accidental unfurling, and its operation is practically silent.
High performance, maintenance-free systems:
Profurl chooses high-performance, reliable materials to ensure long working life. The special marine grade aluminium gear motor is given an anti-corrosion treatment, and is finished in oven-baked paint. The luff extrusions have been designed to resist high torque levels. In common with all Profurl systems, their sealed ball bearings are packed in grease, eliminating any risk of corrosion and making them impermeable to impurities such as water, sand or dust.
Low energy consumption is a key factor on a yacht, and a Profurl motorised furler requires very little power. An additional battery is not necessary. Furling and unfurling the headsail consumes no more energy than displaying the navigation lights for 20 minutes.
