This solid bronze horizontal fairlead guides sheets, reefing lines and other control lines through a raised cylindrical passage. It helps organise the lines on deck while keeping them clear of the mounting surface.

The rounded edges of the opening allow the rope to run smoothly and reduce chafing. The circular base plate has three fixing holes for deck mounting. The passage should be aligned with the line to avoid excessive changes of direction.

Designed for ropes up to 16 mm in diameter, this fairlead is suitable for fitting out and restoring classic sailing yachts. This deck fitting provides fixed guidance for running rigging, with no moving parts.

Frequently asked questions

1. Which fixings should I use to install this fairlead?
- Depending on the mounting surface, you can use wood screws or machine screws with matching nuts and washers for through-bolted installation. The diameter and strength of the fixings must be suitable for the fitting and expected loads.
  
  Please note: on wooden boats, moisture and salt water can promote electrochemical reactions involving metal fittings and timber, potentially causing deterioration of the wood around the fixings.
  
  We recommend using compatible marine-grade fixings, avoiding combinations of dissimilar metals wherever possible, and ensuring the installation is properly sealed.
2. Is this horizontal fairlead available in other finishes?
- This solid bronze horizontal fairlead can be supplied with a chrome-plated finish upon request, with a lead time of approximately 3 weeks.
3. Can this fairlead be made to measure?
- This horizontal bronze fairlead cannot be made to measure.

Good to know

This horizontal fairlead is handcrafted using century-old moulds, which may result in slight variations in the bronze. These characteristics give each piece its own distinctive character and authenticity.

Solid bronze offers excellent resistance to weathering and marine conditions, helping preserve the quality and integrity of the material over time.
