OWS Sliders
- Made as batten sliders and webbing sliders, each in 5 versions: one fits Selden E-sections (1977-2002) and older Selden/Kemp oval sections, the other 4 fit most other mast brands.
- OWS sliders do not fit the Selden C-section – use MDS sliders there.
- The batten slider takes the batten compression load in a full-batten main; for optimal function and strength use toggle M10 stud 511-739-01.
- Attach to the sail with a webbing strap for maximum strength. All webbing sliders also work as headboard and intermediate sliders.
- Sail feeder gates: 511-740 / 511-750 pass through gate 505-501-01; 511-744 / 511-754 (keelboat sections C106-C139) pass through gate 505-533-02.
