FX+2500 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 12 to 14m (40 to 45 ft.)
- Code sail surface of 100m²/ 1076ft² maximum (max 30m² / 322ft² 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+2500 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
- One snap shackle as the bottom drum attachment (optional SSH+2500 solid sheave as an alternative)
- One shackle as the top swivel attachment (optional SB2500 2-to-1 block as an alternative)
Offers Comfort in Sail Handling, Reliability, and Easy Manipulation:
- Monoblock's 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 a largely dimensioned diameter for strong torque and therefore more comfortable handling
- Is rotation transmitted through an anti-torsion luff rope? Optional—sliding inside the luff tape and fitted with a thimble on each end (FCI2500 s-s thimbles and FRC s-s clamps are also available)
- 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
