Compression strut attachment - any Ø

Compression strut attachment - any Ø.

Plate with flange. Stainless steel plate, with 2 mm diameter holes for use with compression struts, ref. 26-STRUT.

This item is a folded version and is also listed as item 19L. It is a direct replacement for the welded item previously sold as 27D.

Screw it to a boom or deck using No 2 self-tapping screws or M2 screws. Suitable also for kicking strap, forestay or shroud attachment on A Class and similar heavy boats.

Where the plate is used to attach a kicking strap to the boom of a large boat it would be wise to wrap carbon tow wetted with epoxy resin round the boom and each end of the plate for additional security. The screws can be omitted if wrapping is used.

For 12 mm booms the product ref. 27 is a more economical alternative solution.
