The sprocket is an essential component in the operation of your windlass and plays a very important role in the anchor lifting and lowering process. It is an integral part of the deck unit and enables the anchor chain to be lifted from your boat. The chain wraps around the sprocket, preventing tangles and knots .

The sprocket is compatible with the VX2 700 or 900W and VX3 12V or 24V windlasses, which can accommodate 10mm DIN 766 diameter chain or 12 to 16mm diameter rope.

It can also be used with the VX2/3 deck unit to complete your deck unit.

Mooring chains for boats are subject to standards which regulate their manufacture. There are two types of standard: ISO 4565 is a more general international standard, while DIN 766 is a more specific German standard, focusing in particular on steel anchor chains.

ISO 4565 chains have wider and longer links than DIN 766 chains, which implies differences in dimensions , weight and strength .

Here, the sprocket can accommodate a 10mm DIN 766 chain.

To find out the exact dimensions of the chain your sprocket can support, please refer to the diagram in the photo and the corresponding letters in the legend.
