Seldén Foldable Mast Climbing Step
The Seldén Foldable Mast Climbing Step is a practical and well-engineered solution for safer, easier access when working aloft on sailing yachts. Launched in 2024, it reflects Seldén’s long-standing expertise in mast and rigging hardware, combining durability, thoughtful design and ease of installation.
Manufactured from high-quality anodised aluminium, the step is designed for use on aluminium masts and provides reliable support when reaching the main halyard, fitting or removing sail covers, or carrying out routine mast maintenance. It can be installed individually or in a series, depending on the level of access required, and may also be positioned near the masthead to create a stable working point for servicing instruments and fittings.
Foldable, Secure Design
The step folds neatly against the mast when not in use, helping to maintain a clean profile and minimise snagging. Deployment is simple and intuitive: the step unfolds easily by pushing its lower end. When folded, a spring-loaded locking mechanism holds it securely in place, preventing unwanted movement or rattling while sailing.
A key design feature is that all moving parts are engineered to avoid contact with the mast surface. This helps protect mast anodising or paint finishes, even after repeated use, making the step suitable for long-term installation.
Compatibility and Installation
The Seldén Foldable Mast Climbing Step is compatible with all aluminium Seldén mast sections from C137 upwards and is also suitable for most aluminium yacht spars from other manufacturers. Each unit is supplied as a complete, ready-to-fit kit including fasteners, ensuring straightforward installation with minimal effort.
Safety-Focused Approach
The Foldable Mast Climbing Step is designed to be used alongside standard safety equipment when going aloft. Used correctly, it enhances confidence and convenience during mast work while maintaining a strong focus on safety.
Designed for cruising and performance sailors alike, the Seldén Foldable Mast Climbing Step offers a durable, discreet and thoughtfully engineered solution for improved mast access on modern sailing yachts.
