Antal DV Jammer For 8mm Lines Side Mounting
The Antal DV Jammer For 8mm Lines Side Mounting delivers exceptional holding power and reliability for small-diameter, high-load lines. Featuring Antal’s patented Double V-Grip system, it applies even pressure on all sides of the rope, dramatically reducing cover wear while maintaining a secure grip under load. This makes it particularly effective with modern ropes such as Dyneema® blends, as well as traditional polyester double braids.
Key Features
-
Side-mounting design – Ideal for bulkhead or mast installation where deck-mounted jammers are not practical.
-
Double V-Grip mechanism – Two opposing V-shaped wedges create a four-sided grip, tightening automatically as load increases and ensuring consistent performance with reduced line damage.
-
Safe Working Load (SWL) – Rated to 1,500 kg, providing secure holding capacity for halyards, control lines, and other high-load applications.
-
Line compatibility – Optimised for 8 mm lines, making it ideal for lightweight yet highly loaded rope systems.
-
Durable construction – Built from marine-grade alloys and stainless steel for long-term resistance to corrosion and heavy offshore use.
-
Effortless operation – Ratchet-assisted slider makes it easy to engage and release the jammer safely, with line release always controlled via a winch.
Applications
Designed for smaller-diameter halyards, reefing lines, and control lines, the Antal DV Jammer for 8 mm lines is particularly well-suited to performance cruisers and racing yachts. The side-mount format keeps decks uncluttered while enabling secure, mast-mounted line control where space and efficiency are critical.
