Rutgerson Battcar High Load Slide 11mm x 24mm with M10 Thread
The Rutgerson High Load Battcar Slide is designed for fully battened mainsails and demanding installations requiring a larger wheel configuration. Its wheeled construction provides smooth movement along the mast, making the mainsail easier to hoist and lower while requiring minimal maintenance.
Manufactured from high-strength composite, the slide combines excellent strength with low weight and resistance to the marine environment. A corrosion-resistant stainless-steel M10 threaded adaptor provides a secure connection to compatible Rutgerson batten fittings.
This model has an 11mm wide slide profile and extra-large 24mm diameter wheels. The slide profile is the retaining section that runs inside the mast groove, making it essential to select the correct profile and wheel configuration for the particular mast section.
The M10 threaded attachment is compatible with Rutgerson batten fittings 1580, 1587, 1590, 1595, 1596 and 1597.
Compatibility should always be confirmed using the mast manufacturer and exact mast-section reference rather than solely by the boat’s make, model or length. Rutgerson does not list this particular 24mm high-load model in its current mast-section selection table, so confirmation should be obtained from Rutgerson or an authorised distributor before ordering.
Boat size, sail area, rig configuration and expected loads should also be considered when choosing a Battcar. High-load 11mm alternatives are available with 15.5mm wheels as 1535-11-05 and with 19.5mm wheels as 1536-11-05. A separate standard-load E-gate version with 24mm wheels is available as 1532-11-05E.
