RC72504 - Ronstan Series 25 Composite Slide - 25mm (1")

Series 25 Composite Slide - 25mm (1")

Designed for small keel boats and sportsboats, the Series 25 Composite Slide offers a remarkable combination of performance and functionality in a compact package. Constructed from advanced composite materials, these slides are lightweight, resilient, and engineered for efficient manual adjustments.

Lightweight Strength

With a design philosophy rooted in modern engineering, these slides utilize high-tech polymers for their components, replacing traditional metal. This innovation results in significant reductions in weight while maintaining optimal strength and durability.

Innovative Functionality

The two-piece car body is molded from specialized composite materials that ensure low friction against the alloy track, eliminating the need for additional inserts. The integrated becket accommodates 2:1 sheet systems, and a removable threaded pin facilitates the fitting of various blocks and accessories.

Compact and Low Profile

The sleek design coupled with strategic positioning of the attachment pin facilitates a low lead aft. The plunger stop is flush with the car body, preventing snags from lines and sails, while ensuring smooth articulation through the Dyneema� Link.

Enhanced Adjustment Precision

The ergonomically designed plunger stop toggle allows for easy one-handed adjustments, simplifying operation from the cockpit. An arrow indicator on the car's side marks the stop position for consistent settings, with a stop hole spacing of 25mm (63/64") to enhance control over car positioning and sheeting angles.

Applications:

Ideal for headsail sheet leads on boats measuring up to 8M (26').
