Aluminium Sail Track (6m)

Aluminium Sail Tracks are available in select sizes only. We do not cut Aluminium Sail Tracks to exact sizes.

An aluminum sail track is a type of extruded aluminum profile used in sailboat rigging systems. The sail track is designed to allow the mainsail or headsail to slide smoothly along the mast or boom. The sail track is typically installed on the mast or boom using screws, bolts, or rivets, and the sail is then attached to the track using sliders or cars.

Aluminum sail tracks are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and easy to install, making them a popular choice for sailboat rigging systems. They are available in different sizes and shapes to accommodate different sail sizes and types of rigging.

The sail track is an important component of a sailboat rigging system, as it allows the sail to be hoisted and lowered easily and provides a secure attachment point for the sail. The smooth sliding action of the sail track also helps to reduce friction and wear on the sail and the rigging.

In addition to sailboat rigging systems, aluminum sail tracks are also used in other applications, such as awning and shade systems, where they provide a secure attachment point for fabric or canvas.

This Aluminium Sail Track comes in the general Mill finish only.

Aluminum sail tracks are primarily used in sailboat rigging systems, where they serve as a track for the mainsail or headsail to slide along the mast or boom. However, aluminum sail tracks also have other uses in various applications. Here are some common uses of aluminum sail tracks:

1. Sailboat rigging systems: As mentioned, aluminum sail tracks are widely used in sailboat rigging systems to allow for easy hoisting and lowering of sails. They are essential components of sailboat rigging, providing a secure attachment point for the sail and reducing friction and wear.
2. Awning and shade systems: Aluminum sail tracks are also used in awning and shade systems as a track for the fabric or canvas to slide along. The sail tracks provide a secure attachment point for the fabric or canvas and allow for easy opening and closing of the awning or shade system.
3. Curtain wall systems: Aluminum sail tracks are used in curtain wall systems to support the glazing panels. The sail tracks are attached to the building structure, and the glazing panels are then attached to the sail tracks, allowing for easy installation and replacement of the panels.
4. Sliding doors and windows: Aluminum sail tracks are used in sliding doors and windows to provide a smooth and secure track for the doors or windows to slide along. The sail tracks are attached to the frame of the door or window, and the sliding panels are then attached to the sail tracks.
5. Industrial applications: Aluminum sail tracks are also used in various industrial applications, such as conveyor systems and overhead cranes, to provide a smooth and secure track for the movement of heavy loads.

The Mill finish is the raw Aluminium product that has a distinctive draw line which happens because of the extruding process. If you’re looking for that raw metal look, this is the perfect product for you. Mill finish Aluminium holds up longer than most products as it does not rust or degrade even in extreme weather conditions like that of Western Australia.
