Selden Tack Assy L = 381 (RC, 171/94)

The Selden Spare Tack Assembly, L = 381 mm, Furling Mast Type RC (SKU 540-229-01) is an essential genuine replacement part for Selden in-mast furling systems fitted to rigs with RC-type furling masts. This assembly is the connection between the tack of your sail and the mast luff extrusion, and it is intentionally designed as a serviceable weak link so it can be replaced quickly if overloaded or damaged.

This spare part is specified for use with mast section 290/150 and boom sections 143/76 and 171/94, matching certain RC furling mast configurations. A common cause of damage to this part is furling under load without first releasing the outhaul, which can twist or break the assembly. Because of this, keeping a spare tack assembly aboard is recommended for cruising safety and downtime-free sailing.
