Inserting the FLIN mast slider
The FLIN mast sliders can be easily clicked into the mast slot: This allows the FLINsail to be set up without unthreading the mainsail from the mast slot. The mast sliders can be inserted into the mast slot above the mainsail.
1. Open mast slider
The mast slider is provided with a loop for insertion into the slot. If this is pulled, the mast slider tapers.
2. Insert mast slider
While the loop is held under tension, the mast slider can be easily inserted into the mast slot.
3. Mast slider closes
When the loop is left loose again, the mast slider forms a thickening by spring force and finds a hold in the mast slot.
Mast sliders for all systems
We offer our functional FLIN mast sliders for all common mast slots and T-rails. The mast sliders for the T-rails can be easily placed on the T-rail above the mainsail, just as with the mast slot.
Width slot
Our FLIN mast sliders are compatible with all common mast slots. No matter whether your mast profile is from Selden or another manufacturer, the FLIN mast sliders can be inserted into any mast slot. Only the slot width is decisive for the selection of the suitable mast slider.
Narrow slot
Even if your mast has a narrow slot in which the mainsail is directly guided, we offer the matching mast slider with it. Simply measure the width of the slot to select the appropriate mast slider.
T-rail
We also supply mast sliders that can be mounted on a T-rail. We support all common systems from Harken, Ronstan and Facnor. Just tell us the width of your T-rail and we will fit your FLINsail with the appropriate system.
Measure mast system
Which mast system do you use?
The FLIN mast sliders can be inserted into the mast slot above the mainsail or placed on the T-rail. This means that the mainsail does not have to be unthreaded in order to place the FLINsail above the furled mainsail.
Select the appropriate FLIN mast slider for your mast system in the order form. To do so, measure the width of your mast groove or T-rail as shown on the right.
