| Exit Plates & Chafe Bars | |
| Exit Plates are used to lead any
control line (internal halyards, pole lifts, etc.) through a spar wall, where No
directional change is required. An Exit Plate is installed in a slot, to prevent
the line going through it from coming in contact with the spar wall. This prevents any
abrasion of the spar wall, as well as minimizing chafe on the line. Suitable for use with
wire or rope, most of the Exit Plates listed below feature welded or formed bars to
prevent chafe on the interior mast wall, and smooth formed outer surfaces to reduce wear
on all control lines. Chafe Bars come in sets of 2 separate pieces and
prevent chafe at the slot ends only, one piece is mounted outside the Spar at one end of
the slot, the other piece is mounted inside the Spar at the other end of the slot. Other
Exit Plates are available for replacement or exact matching
purposes. Depending on the kind of spars you have, See
Kenyon Exit Plates,
Isomat/Sparcraft Exit Plates,
FranceSpar Exit Plates, or
Z-Spar Exit Plates. |
