     Rig Tensioners

Wichard backstay and babystay adjusters are fitted with an ingenious copper-nickel adjustment system that eliminates any risk of snagging or oxidation, and in terms of maintenance only require rinsing in clean water.

Their thread, which has been specially designed, provides ease of operation even while under very high loads. Most of the models feature a calibrated scale so that you can find the best settings quickly.

The Wichard backstay ratchet models are especially well suited to applications where space is limited, slim-line design and a ratcheting handle make this a best selling item.

The pelican hook of the Wichard babystay adjusters allows initial tensioning when they are being fitted, which can be done using just one hand.

IYE Backstay & Babystay Tensioners are designed for quick and effortless adjustment of the rig by the use of thrust roller bearings incorporated within the body. Half the wire break load can be applied in less than 25 seconds!

Clever design by IYE means greasy exposed threads are eliminated by the use of a molded bellow sleeve, and the foldaway handles offer a neat solution where space is at a premium.

Loos Rig Tension Gauges are robust accurate corrosion resistant gauges, that enables you to quickly dial in the correct settings for your mast when the conditions require them to be changed.

Loos Rig Tension Gauges, have become the benchmark tension gauge across the world in all the hotly contested fleets such as the International Dragons and Etchels.

Modern racing yachts have very high rig loads and it is recommended that the tension is released when they are not in use, therefore it is essential that you have a means of putting the same tension back into the rig for the next race, the accuracy of the Loos Rig Tension Gauge means that you can be confident of getting the same settings time after time.
