Mainsail Traveller Systems
Master Mainsail Trim and Control
Mainsail traveler systems are all about trim, control, and reliable power transfer on board.
When choosing, breaking load, diameter, and compatibility with your existing hardware are important. Ball bearings run smoothly under load, while plain bearings are robust and low-maintenance.
This ensures precise, smooth, and durable sail handling.
Discover variants, materials, and designs built for marine use. This way, you'll find equipment that remains reliable on board – season after season.

Deine Fragen / Unsere Antworte
- How do I find out which traveler car fits my existing track?
- The cross-section of the track is decisive, often designed as a T-slot or double-T profile. Measure the width and height of the profile and compare them with the manufacturer's specifications for the car – many systems are not cross-manufacturer compatible.
- What breaking load should a traveler system have for my boat class?
- The required breaking load depends on mast height, sail size, and typical wind strength. As a guide: it is better to plan for a reserve capacity and check the manufacturer's specifications for the maximum boat length or sail size before committing.
- Can I retroactively install a ball-bearing car in an existing plain bearing track?
- Only if the track cross-section and car width are identical. Ball-bearing cars often have a different running profile than plain bearing cars, even from the same manufacturer – a direct exchange is therefore not always possible.
- How do I properly maintain a traveler car after the sailing season?
- Rinse the track and car thoroughly with fresh water, remove salt residues from the running track, and then treat all moving parts with a PTFE or silicone spray. Ball-bearing cars should be checked for play and smooth running before being stored.
