Heel fitting - ball raced - 14 mm Ø

Quick Overview

Heel fitting - ball raced. For a swing rig with a 14 mm Ø mast and a mast trunking of 17 mm internal Ø. Ball races minimise the friction of this item and permit much freer rotation in light airs than the PTFE bearings.


Suitable for use on all SAILSetc Marbleheads with swing rigs.


This item is now made with a cup-like heel fitting that caps the lower end of the mast and prevents it from splitting. A robust fitting that is a friction fit on our standard 14 mm Ø carbon mast tubes.


Two versions - the standard version is for a 12 mm internal Ø mast, the other for a 10 mm internal Ø mast.
