Barton 42336 – Top Swivel for Furling System, Ball Bearing, Max Sail 100 sq ft
The Barton 42336 Top Swivel is an essential component of the Barton furling system, designed to work in conjunction with the 42334 and 42335 furling drums. It is installed at the head of the sail, allowing smooth rotation during furling and unfurling operations.
As shown in the Barton furler fact sheet :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}, both drum sizes share this common top swivel, ensuring compatibility across the system and simplifying installation and maintenance.
Manufactured from machine-turned solid aluminium with stainless steel ball bearings, the swivel delivers smooth, low-friction rotation under load. This ensures reliable furling performance and reduces wear on both the sail and rigging components.
According to the installation diagram :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}, the top swivel connects the sail head to the halyard and rotates independently of the forestay, allowing the sail to furl cleanly without twisting or binding.
