Unit 2 Reflex Furling System - Asymmetric Spinnaker - 82 ft Cable

The Harken Reflex furling system is a game changer! The previous generation of free-flying sail furlers often resulted in partial or uneven furling.

Patent-pending Harken Reflex furlers provide sailors confidence that their free-flying spinnakers, gennakers, and code sails will furl with speed and control.
The result? Sailors use downwind sails more often — even when sailing shorthanded.

The compact Reflex drive unit is easier to handle than other designs. Pull the furling line and the drive unit reacts reflexively to rotate the torsion cable - immediately transferring torque to the head swivel without having unwanted corkscrewing delay the response.
The head swivel reacts instantly, spinning the sail smoothly and completely from top to bottom for an even roll-up and super-tight wrap. The furled spinnaker lowers easily to the deck, ready for the next hoist.

The Reflex cable is more torsionally resistant to corkscrewing than the current breed of textile cable. Braided stainless steel wire filaments over the braided polyester core transmit torque to the head swivel through both tension and compression for faster furling. Older textile cables transmit through tension only.)

The Reflex Furlers have a quick-release modular T-fitting which allows a single drive unit to handle multiple sails.
Unit 2 is rated at a maximum working load (MWL) of 2.5T, for boats up to 45 feet (14 meters).
