This robust low-friction ball bearing handle matches a range of cranking needs for both racers and cruisers. Handles feature a ball bearing grip that efficiently transmits power into the winch. Lock-in handles are easy to engage and release with a thumb switch and fit international standard winch sockets. 254 mm is the most comfortable handle length for most sailors. Published power ratios are based on this length. SpeedGrip handles are designed for the serious racer and effective in both light and heavy air conditions. The unique grip permits low-load fast cranking using the palm, and powerful two-handed grinding when loads are high.
