CB Captive Ball Bearing Travelers<br />

Easily Adjust<br />

Leads Under Load<br />

Whether racing or cruising, a free-running ball bearing<br />

traveler system makes the difference in sail control.<br />

Wind light? Adjust the traveler to power up the main.<br />

Is it blowing? Depower by easing the car to reduce<br />

heel and maintain speed—faster and safer than<br />

releasing the sheet, then struggling to retrim.<br />

Systems tailored for end-boom and mid-boom<br />

configurations. Use risers and high-profile track to<br />

raise the traveler<br />

out of the cockpit.<br />

Details Make the Difference<br />

Strong, Light Car Body<br />

One-piece solid 6061-T6 aluminum construction for strength and durability.<br />

CNC sculpted to remove excess weight.<br />

Captive Bearings<br />

Wire guides keep balls captive making cars easy to load and maintain.<br />

Guides circulate free-rolling Torlon ® bearings smoothly under both high<br />

and low loads.<br />

Long-Lasting Protective Finish<br />

Car body and bearing races are deep-saturation Hardkote-anodized and<br />

Teflon ® -impregnated for durability. UV-stabilized with black additive for<br />

maximum protection.<br />

1. Bind-Free Stand-Up Toggle<br />

Stand-up toggle holds mainsheet<br />

block upright off deck.<br />

Toggle attaches low inside car so<br />

off-angle mainsheet loads apply<br />

less leverage on balls, allowing<br />

cars to roll freely. Cars accept<br />

loads to 40-degrees from vertical<br />

without binding.<br />

Carbo or Black Magic ® control<br />

blocks attach directly to toggle ears<br />

to reduce load on car so bearings<br />

don’t bind.<br />

DO NOT use Harken equipment for human suspension.<br />
