FX+1500 Flying Sail Furler with Ratchet

Further to constructive technical exchanges with ocean racers, Facnor has developed for over 20 years a sophisticated range of Gennaker/Code Zero furlers: the FX+. These furlers are known to be light, easy to fit, and aesthetic. Also, this furler is reliable for cruising or racing.

Features:

• Adapted to sailboat from 10 to 12m (30 to 40 ft.)
• Code sail surface of 60m²/ 646ft² maximum (max 20m² / 215ft² staysail)
• Ratchet option Start & Go included (working both clock or anti-clockwise)
• Unique captive quick-release pin
• Possible conversion for asymmetric Spinnaker
• Composite/carbon housing
• Maintenance-free units (sealed bearings)

The Standard Kit of the FX+1500 Furler Includes:

• A ratchet in s/s duplex enabling a temporary stop when furling in and a self-locking both clockwise and anti-clockwise (Facnor patent)
• 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 a neoprene anti-impact cover with high-visibility marking

• Is rotation transmitted through an anti-torsion luff rope? optional—sliding inside the luff tape and fitted with a thimble on each end (FCI1500 s-s thimbles and FRC s-s clamps are also available)
