Some parts not listed here are available on a Custom basis, we will require a sketch of the parts with dimensions and full details including Winch size to quote.
 


Merriman Bronze Winches - Pawls and Springs
Merriman #395 and #396 Bronze Winches were produced from the mid 1920's until the early 1970's, and are the most commonly seen Bronze winches. Sometimes Chrome-plated, these Top-action (#395) and Bottom-action (#396) Halyard and Sheet Winches all used a Flat, Slide-in Bronze Winch Handle, and have an opposing pawl system. Versions produced after 1963 used square Pawls, earlier models had Round Pawls. Most Winches have the size (#1, 2, or 3) stamped in the top.
If you require Pawls and Springs not listed here, we will require a sketch of the old Pawls and/or Springs with dimensions and full details including Winch size.

Merriman Aluminum Winches - Pawls and Springs
Merriman #8, 10, 16, 22, 25, and 28 Aluminum Winches were produced beginning in 1971, all use the same Pawl and Spring assembly. Pawl design is similar to Barient and Lewmar, but far superior and more costly to produce, incorporating plastic pads in the Pawl face to reduce noise and drum wear, as well as an integral delrin shaft that captivates the Pawl Spring, greatly simplifying replacement. These Top-action Winches all use the Barient standard 11/16" hexagonal Winch Handle. Sorry, no other parts are available for these Winches.
