Harken offers a wide range of low-friction ball bearing winch handles. These ball bearings offer an efficient transmission of power into the winch and will fit all standard winch sockets.
Locking vs. Plain Lock-in
Handles are easy to engage and release with a thumb switch. Plain handles are faster to insert.
254 mm (10 in) is the most comfortable handle length for most sailors. Published power ratios are based on this length.
Harken also has a shorter 8 inch winch handle.
