Backstay, Split, Top Portion Only, Trim-2-Fit, C-27, CP-25

Part #: H1990
$234.91
Backstay top wire only, for Catalina 27. We start with corrosion resistant type 316 stainless steel wire. A roll swaged fitting is used on the top fitting. A new open design turnbuckle body made from bronze and plated with chrome prevents the galling common to products made from all stainless steel. This design can be securely pinned to prevent the turnbuckle from unscrewing.
We include a user installed swageless compression terminal stud on the lower end of the wire. The body screws directly onto the stud eliminating the top turnbuckle toggle. There are fewer parts that can fail and fewer parts to snag sails and sheets when compared to the older design which incorporated both upper and lower t-bolt and toggle assemblies. We replace your old turnbuckle toggle with a forged T-bolt design which cannot accidentally unscrew from the bottom slug like earlier designs. Turnbuckle clevis pins and new cotter pins are provided.

This backstay is supplied with a compression terminal stud so you can trim the wire to length, saving you the trouble of having to send in your old rigging to achieve a perfect fit.

This stay is made to order just for you. When you order it we cut the wire from a long reel and swage on the fitting. We can't splice it back onto the reel or remove the fitting we swaged on for you. Once you order it your order cannot be canceled, modified, returned, or exchanged, so please choose carefully!
