Lewmar Pro-Series Generation 3 Seals & Screws Kit

Keep Your Windlass Running Smoothly with Genuine Replacement Parts

In the harsh marine environment, where saltwater, UV exposure, and constant mechanical stress take their toll, maintaining your anchoring system is non-negotiable. The seals and screws in your Lewmar Pro-Series Generation 3 windlass are the unsung heroes that keep water out and components secure. Over time, these parts wear down, leading to leaks, corrosion, or loose fittings that can compromise performance during critical anchoring moments.

This dedicated kit provides everything you need for a straightforward refresh, ensuring your windlass operates as reliably as the day it was installed. Boaters who prioritize proactive maintenance swear by these OEM replacements—they restore factory-level sealing and fastening without the guesswork of aftermarket alternatives.

What's Inside the Kit

Crafted with precision engineering, this kit includes high-quality seals designed to withstand abrasion and pressure, paired with corrosion-resistant screws that match original specifications. Each component is made from marine-grade materials to combat the elements, delivering long-lasting protection for your windlass gearbox, motor housing, and mounting points.

• Durable O-rings and gaskets for watertight seals
• Stainless steel screws optimized for vibration resistance
• Exact-fit replacements for seamless integration

No more scavenging for mismatched parts—everything arrives ready to install, saving you time on the water or in the yard.

Perfect Fit for Pro-Series Generation 3 Models

Engineered exclusively for Lewmar's Pro-Series Generation 3 windlasses, this kit slots right into place. Whether you're dealing with a compact deck-mounted unit or a heavier-duty below-deck model, these parts align perfectly with the updated Gen 3 design, which features improved gypsy profiles and faster line retrieval.

Common wear spots like the hawse pipe seals or capstan cover screws get targeted attention, preventing issues like chain jams or motor strain that plague neglected systems.

Benefits of Regular Windlass Maintenance

Skipping maintenance might seem like a shortcut, but it often leads to costly breakdowns far from shore. Fresh seals eliminate water intrusion that causes electrical shorts or gear rust, while secure screws maintain alignment for smooth rode deployment. The result? Faster anchoring, reduced wear on your chain and rode, and peace of mind knowing your system is battle-ready.

Pro tip: Inspect seals annually or after every 100 hours of use, especially if you're cruising in tropical waters where heat accelerates degradation. Pair this kit with a freshwater rinse routine to extend its lifespan even further.

Simple DIY Installation Tips

No need for a marine mechanic—most replacements take under an hour with basic tools. Start by powering down and disconnecting the windlass. Remove old screws carefully (they might be seized from salt buildup), then pop out worn seals using a flat tool. Clean mating surfaces thoroughly before fitting new parts, and torque screws to spec for optimal hold.

1. Disconnect battery and relieve tension on anchor rode
2. Disassemble affected sections per your model's manual
3. Lubricate new seals lightly with marine grease
4. Reassemble and test in shallow water

Users report noticeably quieter operation and effortless gypsy engagement post-install, proving the value of these precision parts.
