Low Friction Fairlead – Small

The Antal Low Friction Fairlead (Model SD08) is a sleek and efficient solution engineered for guiding halyards or control lines through the mast exit or underdeck systems. Thanks to its low-friction, lightweight design, it ensures smooth line movement even under moderate tension, making it ideal for sailboats where performance and reliability are essential.

Crafted from hard-anodised aluminium, the SD08 offers excellent corrosion resistance and durability in harsh marine environments. Its polished entry and exit surfaces minimise rope abrasion and reduce friction, protecting costly lines and hardware. Despite its compact size, this fairlead is robust enough to handle up to 1000 kg of line tension, delivering dependable performance without the need for bearings or regular maintenance.
