Plastimo Halyard Feeder SS GM Windlass

PLASTIMO Stainless Steel Halyard Feeder | For Smooth & Reliable Sail Hoisting

Experience seamless sail handling and eliminate frustrating halyard wrap with the PLASTIMO Stainless Steel Halyard Feeder. This essential piece of rigging hardware is expertly designed to guide your headsail halyard perfectly into the foil groove of your furling system, ensuring a smooth, snag-free hoist every time. Whether you´re a single-handed sailor or a full crew, this simple yet highly effective component significantly enhances the safety, efficiency, and longevity of your entire headsail setup.

Crafted from high-quality, marine-grade stainless steel, the PLASTIMO Halyard Feeder offers exceptional durability and superior resistance to corrosion in the harsh saltwater environment. Its robust construction guarantees reliable performance season after season, protecting your halyard from chafe and premature wear. By maintaining the correct halyard angle, it prevents the line from wrapping around the forestay, a common issue that can damage your sail and rigging and create a hazardous situation on the water. This small upgrade provides immense peace of mind, allowing you to focus on the joy of sailing.

This feeder is a critical component for any vessel equipped with a compatible PLASTIMO reefing-furling system. While not a windlass itself, this feeder is an essential piece of deck hardware, much like quality windlasses, designed to manage lines under load and ensure smooth operation for critical onboard systems.
