Harken Toggle/stud assembly with bushing 26 mm

HARKEN Toggle/Stud Assembly with Bushing 26 mm

Ensure the absolute integrity and performance of your vessel´s standing rigging with the HARKEN Toggle/Stud Assembly with Bushing 26 mm. Engineered for sailors who demand unwavering reliability and precision, this critical fitting serves as a superior connection point between your rigging wire terminal and the chainplate or mast tang. Designed by a world leader in sailing hardware, this assembly is built to withstand the immense and dynamic loads experienced at sea, providing you with the confidence to push your boat to its limits, whether you are a competitive racer or a blue-water cruiser.

The primary benefit of this assembly lies in its ability to provide crucial articulation. The integrated toggle design allows for multi-axis movement, which is essential for accommodating slight misalignments and the natural flexing of the mast and hull while underway. This articulation drastically reduces metal fatigue on both the stud and the attachment point, preventing stress-induced failures and significantly extending the life of your entire rigging system. By distributing loads more evenly, it protects your investment and, most importantly, enhances the safety of everyone on board.

This assembly is a complete, ready-to-install solution, designed for seamless integration into your existing or new rigging setup. The inclusion of a high-performance bushing is a key feature that sets this component apart. This bushing ensures smooth, low-friction articulation under high load, preventing binding and wear over time. This results in consistent performance and reduced maintenance, allowing you to focus on the sail, not on your hardware.

Key Benefits:

* Enhanced Safety and Durability: The toggle´s articulation prevents point-loading and metal fatigue, mitigating the risk of critical rigging failure and ensuring long-term structural integrity.
* Superior Load Articulation: Accommodates movement in multiple directions, protecting chainplates and mast tangs from damaging side loads and torsion.
* Optimized Performance: By allowing the rigging to align perfectly with the load path, it ensures maximum strength and efficiency from your shrouds and stays.
* Reduced Maintenance: The integrated low-friction bushing minimizes wear and tear, guaranteeing smooth operation and a longer service life with less frequent inspection and replacement.

Main Features:

* An integrated toggle fork design for multi-axis articulation.
* A precision-engineered, low-friction bushing for smooth movement under load.
* A high-strength threaded stud for secure attachment to the wire terminal.
* A robust construction designed to meet and exceed the demands of modern sailing.
