Selden/Kemp Internal Mast Track Slide
Nylon
Bainbridge track slides have been carefully designed to allow compatibility with the widest possible range of mast sections. Design and material selection leads to trouble-free use and maximum strength even under the most arduous conditions.
This tough, internal track slide is made of injection-molded Nylon. It is used to secure mains or mizzens to their spars to make lowering sails easier.
Sail slides are typically secured ahead of the boltrope and inserted in the mast slot instead of the rope. Sail slides also keep the sail stacked in the slot when a sail track stop is used. Slugs and slides are generally installed every 26 inches along the Luff edge and every 18 inches along the Foot edge of a sail.
