In-house 3D modelling service

We can now offer an in-house 3D modelling service to our customers to assist with product development. This service allows for a rapid visual response for our customers before entering into modifying or producing new tooling.

Supply chain lack of base nylons

As I am sure you are aware, due to Covid restriction and the uncertainty around Brexit, there are certain grades of nylon base material where the production has been scaled back over the last 12 months. This is starting to have an effect on the supply chain. Our stocks are OK for now, but we are starting to hear of concerns within the industry. Manufacturers are starting to scale up production again. We are doing everything to overcome this situation and will keep you posted. We have committed to over 6 months of raw aluminium stock to ensure our alloy cleats are always available. For now, we would advise, wherever possible, to use the aluminium version of a cleat. We, of course, will keep you up to date with the situation.

Lazy Jacks for Dinghies and Yachts up to 8.5m

This very simple and cost-effective way of combining our CL211MK2/S2 fairlead cleat with becket, together with 2 x PT5110 Titanium thimbles, to create a 2 point (each side) or 3 point (using 4 x PT5110) Lazy Jack System for 6mm line. Slacken whilst sailing and tighten just before you want to drop the mainsail (ensure topping lift is also tightened) by only needing to adjust one line. The Lazy Jack system keeps the sail tidy, secure and off the deck. This gives you the full visibility and control whilst you are mooring or coming along side. Once moored simple flank and tie down your mainsail as normal.
