          Description

          Lewmar's DC1 Single Rope Clutch is very innovative because it does not use teeth to jam the line. Instead it uses a domino cluster that flex for better grip and less rope wear. This clutch has a series of smooth, in-line and parallel rings hinged at the base. The line is run through these rings which are then tilted by a single connecting lever which force the line to snake through them, creating the necessary friction to hold the line securely. When the clutch is released the line straightens and can be eased smoothly if released gradually.

          Features:

          • Instead of simply jamming line, the domino cluster flexes for better grip and less rope wear
          • Pull-back handle combined with patented clutch and release mechanism provides controlled release even at full holding load
          • Ergonomically correct handle with solid link to domino cluster
          • Stainless steel fairleads for reduced friction
          • Side apertures allow easy cleaning of mechanism
          • Clutch Type: Single rope

          Specifications:

          • Clutch Type: Single rope
          • Working Load Limit: 500 kg (1100 lbs)
          • Minimum Holding Load for 6 - 8 mm Line: 300 kg (661 lbs)
          • Minimum Holding Load for 8 - 10 mm Line: 400 kg (880 lbs)
          • Minimum Holding Load for 10 - 12 mm Line: 500 kg (1100 lbs)
          • Dimensions: 72 mm H x 32 mm W x 126 mm L (2 13/16" H x 1 5/16" W x 5" L)

          Note: When selecting a clutch, it is best to select the size with an upper rope range close to the size of the line to be gripped. Doing so will ensure maximum deflection as the domino cluster flexes the line.

          If you mean side mounted to a mast, Yes. Using it for my halyards.
