Description
Roller Fairlead – A.597
The A.597 Roller Fairlead is designed to reduce friction on the mainsheet, making trimming and pumping smoother and more efficient. Ideal for dinghies with a mainsheet jammer, it’s especially effective in classes that use a split-tail mainsheet or allow class-legal pumping.
Featuring a top roller for powerful upward pumps without rope wear, and rolling side fairleads to handle sideways loads, this fairlead minimises energy loss while protecting your control lines.
The A.597 is quick to fit to any cam cleat with 38mm hole centres and includes extra-long threads for customisation with lifters and wedges. Threads can be cut to length once installed.
Comes with a black sheave.
Purpose: Reduces friction for easier trimming and pumping.
Compatibility: Fits cam cleats with 38mm hole centres.
Features: Top and side rollers for smooth, efficient rope handling.
Customisation: Extra-long threads for use with lifters and wedges.

great for my finn mainsheet. it makes the rope much easy to pull for going downwind and catch waves.

Shame you have to cut the bolt. Everything else about this roller fairlead is good.
