Barton 44031 – Sliding Pin Boomstrut with Fiberglass Rods (Black), for Boats 7.5–9m, Force 185kg
The Barton 44031 Boomstrut is designed for boats between 7.5 and 9 meters, delivering reliable and consistent boom support. Featuring black coated fiberglass rods, it provides a constant upward force while maintaining a lightweight and low-profile design.
When the boom is pulled down using the vang, the rods flex and store energy. Upon release, they return to their original shape, lifting the boom smoothly and efficiently. This improves vang efficiency and eliminates the need for topping lifts or mechanical boom support systems.
The Boomstrut is completely maintenance-free, with no moving or sliding components. It integrates easily into existing rigging setups and is compatible with all mast and boom extrusions.
