I have them on my 25 and they work great. They came on a pair of Barient 18s that I traded for another pair of winches I had and some splicing jobs.
I don’t know what size they are but they almost look a size too small for the winches, maybe that’s why I haven’t had the slippage problems that some people have had. There is no way I could get my normal sheets in the outer groove but my light air ones do fit. I use 5/16” sheets and the key is to get three full wraps on the winch then grind it in to jam the top wrap against the bottom of the Wincher, if I don’t do that the sheet will back off. I like them because you can take in the majority of the sheet before the load comes on then put on the third wrap and finish trimming in the sail with one hand, great for single handed sailing. I still have to deal with the sheet as it comes off the winch but I can crank it in a couple turns before it gets around to the front of the winch, if you have someone to tail this is a non-issue.

(There's a pair of 60 ST's out there now for $1700.) Winchmates are ~$550 each. That's $1100 a pair. Good used non-self tailers sell for $300-800 on eBay depending on size and condition. I upgraded Touche's primary, secondary and cabin top winches from alloy to chrome bronze. Net cost for 2 Barlow 28's, 2 Barlow 26's and 2 stainless Barient 22's (all used non ST's) was around $600. Paid $1100 for the "new" ones and sold two pairs of the old ones on eBay for $500 and tossed a pair of 28's in the dumpster. Just saying.... Dennis C.
