AT THE SAIL CONTACT POINT
Add a rolling surface where sails touch
A freely rotating roller in a suitable position helps reduce sail-to-wire rubbing.
Made for everyday use
A 100 mm disc
Rounded edges form the contact surface.
A removable lock
The two-tab piece closes around the wire.
Check it in place
Turn the fitted roller by hand to test movement.
Before you choose
Confirm wire compatibility
An 8 mm opening does not establish compatibility with every 8 mm wire; assess nearby fittings and rotation clearance together.
Choose the contact point
Leave enough space where the sail touches for the roller to move without catching other parts.
Use & care
Placement
A suitable point where the sail meets the guard wire and the roller can turn freely
Size and fit
100 mm outer diameter and 8 mm centre hole. Check clearance around the wire and free rotation; wire diameter alone does not confirm fit.
Before use
Check that the closure and both latch tabs are fully seated and that the roller turns without binding
Care
Rinse with fresh water and wipe with a soft cloth. Regularly check the closure, latch tabs and rotating surface for wear; do not use a damaged part.
