Spinlock Rig-Sense - Rig tension gauge - 2mm-5mm
Rig-Sense is a rig tension device for measuring the loads in wire or rope on dinghies and small keelboats. Rig-Sense is simple to use, measuring the tension directly in kilograms. Rig-Sense also benefits from being able to be operated one-handed, supporting itself on the rig whilst being used.
The Karver “Jaws Handle” enables you to hold a line, comfortably, under load. It can be used to trim on a mainsheet or spinnaker sheet whilst being kind to your hands. The Karver “Jaws Handle” can also be used as a stopper during an emergency manoeuvre or when there is an over-ride on the winch. Hold a halyard that is stuck, or free up a winch when striking a new sail - the uses are endless. Keep one in your pocket and you won't be disappointed.Antal Soft Loop Hook 16A
