STG 3T Wire furler - 21382 C

ode Zeros and Gennakers are finished with luff ropes that pro-vide the sail with strength to handle the high halyard load requi- red for proper function. Facnor furlers are designed with thisimportant feature in mind and we manufacture thimbles that fit the jaw of the furler to accommodate different luff ropes. The FX code zero and gennaker furlers are designed with an open jaw to transmit the twist ofthe luff rope.

WIRE FURLER

STG 3T wire furlers: The 3T "in & out" furling systems are quite similars in use to conventional fur- lers. However,with this type of furler, the headsail is fitted with snapshackle to the forestay wire and then can be quickly changed. Light and easy to operate, the STG 3Tsuits particu- larlymonotype racing boats. Thimble drawing 1 Aluminum thimbles
Luff ropes finished with Facnor lightweight aluminum thimbles fit theexact inside dimension of the jaw on the furler for a clean finish at the tack and head. The thimble and luff rope quickly transfer the furling action from the drum to the luff for tight and even furling. Facnor thimbles are CNC machined from a solid block of aluminum so they resist crushing under high loads. Consult with your sailmaker to find the best luff rope configuration for your boat. However, you can be sure that Facnor makes thimbles that will suit your needs : - Standard thimble - Webbing and lashing thimble - Twin luff rope thimbleVarious sizes available for each model

Blocks and sheaves
Often high halyard loads are required to properly sail with Code Zerosso Facnor offer many variations of 2 to 1 fittings. Compact sheaves integrated into the halyard swivel reduce weight aloft and increase luff length while a block installed on the bottom of the drum can reduce the amount of mast compression. Many options are available to accom- modate any specific need.
