HARKEN YACHT FITTINGS 26mm Switch Battcar — M12 Stud for C-Tech Batten
Favored by skippers and crew worldwide, Harken Battcar systems deliver instant mainsail control from the cockpit, even when close reaching in strong breezes. The award-winning Switch T-Track Battcar system reduces stack height by half on large yachts, making it significantly easier for crew to install sail covers and connect or disconnect halyards efficiently.
This sophisticated patented switch system neatly stacks multiple cars side-by-side on top of the boom without sacrificing performance or safety. The simple yet elegant design provides reliable operation across a wide range of sail conditions and vessel types.
Harken now offers an M12 stud variant that allows C-Tech batten receptacles to integrate seamlessly with Battcar systems. The pintles feature protective shoulders that guard threads from bending, ensuring exceptional durability and robustness under demanding marine conditions. This configuration supports maximum working loads of 680 kg (1500 lb) and is rated for monohull sail areas up to 160 m² (1730 ft²) and multihull applications up to 120 m² (1300 ft²).
