Windline

<h3>Windline: Setting the Standard in Marine Hardware Since 1978</h3><p><strong>Windline</strong> is one of the most respected names in marine hardware, and for good reason. Since 1978, the brand has grown from humble beginnings in a garage into a company that designs, manufactures, and distributes its products out of a 75,000-square-foot facility in California. That growth didn't happen by accident — it was built on a foundation of genuine innovation and uncompromising quality.</p><h3>The Innovation That Changed an Industry</h3><p>Windline first made its mark with the invention of the first telescoping boarding ladder, which quickly appeared on the specification sheets of all the major boat manufacturers, replacing 95% of all former designs and creating a new industry standard that continues today. That breakthrough set the tone for everything the company has done since.</p><p>Today, Windline's <a href="/7652-windline-boarding-ladders-200179">boarding ladders</a> remain its most celebrated product line, available in telescoping, folding, pontoon, stern-mount, and over- and under-platform configurations. Most Windline ladders are made of high-grade 304 or 316 electro-polished stainless steel, with several aluminum models also available. Stainless steel items undergo an electro-polishing process that results in a spectacular buffed finish, enhancing both aesthetics and durability.</p><h3>Swim Platforms Built for the Water</h3><p>Windline's <a href="/7652-windline-swim-platforms-ladders-201027">swim platforms and ladders</a> are engineered for boaters who demand reliable, safe access to the water. Whether you're snorkeling, swimming, or simply climbing back aboard after a dive, these products combine secure attachment, deep water reach, and compact stowability — hallmarks of the Windline design philosophy that have made the brand a go-to choice for OEM boat builders worldwide.</p><h3>Anchoring and Bow Hardware</h3><p>Proper ground tackle deployment begins with robust bow hardware, and Windline is a go-to brand for essential anchoring components that manage the anchor chain and rode safely and efficiently. Windline's line of <a href="/7652-windline-bow-rollers-200199">bow rollers</a> includes pivoting and fixed stainless steel models designed to cradle a wide range of anchor types. A large part of the Windline assortment is occupied by anchor brackets, rollers, and tensioners, with tensioners specifically designed to securely keep the anchor in its roller while preventing rattle.</p><h3>Complete Deck Outfitting</h3><p>Beyond ladders and anchoring systems, Windline rounds out a boater's deck setup with practical accessories. Their <a href="/7652-windline-fender-holders-200393">fender holders</a> keep fenders secure and properly positioned to protect the hull, while a broad range of <a href="/7652-windline-hardware-parts-accessories-200513">hardware parts and accessories</a> — from handrails to rod holders — reflect the brand's commitment to making every inch of a vessel more functional and user-friendly.</p><h3>Made in the USA, Backed for Life</h3><p>All Windline items, including ladder parts, come with a lifetime warranty, and the company takes pride in manufacturing all of its products in the United States. That combination of domestic craftsmanship, rigorous engineering, and an industry-defining warranty program is what keeps Windline on the specification sheets of leading boat manufacturers — and in the gear bags of serious boaters everywhere.</p>

Product Details

The Windline AR-5 Medium Platform Anchor Roller is designed for boats equipped with anchor platforms or bow planks and pivoting fluke anchors. This versatile anchor roller mounts in or under the bow plank slot to securely hold your anchor under the bow plank, keeping it organized and ready for deployment.

Key Features:

  • Medium-size roller designed for pivoting fluke anchors
  • Heavy-duty stainless steel construction for maximum corrosion resistance
  • Self-lubricating bushing ensures smooth operation and long service life
  • Strong yet lightweight design won't add unnecessary weight to your bow
  • Mounts in or under slot for clean, secure anchor storage

This anchor roller is part of Windline's AR series, which includes the AR-4 (small), AR-5 (medium), and AR-6 (large) to accommodate different anchor sizes and boat configurations. The stainless steel construction and self-lubricating bushing make this an ideal choice for saltwater and freshwater applications.
