Selden Fireball Twaron Spinnaker Pole

Seldén have developed our own computer controlled manufacturing method in which prepreg (pre-impregnated) tows are wound onto a mandrel (cylinder) prior to oven curing. This method enables them to exercise full control over every stage of the manufacturing process and guarentee products of consistently high quality. One of the big advantages of the Seldén production method is that it enables them to achieve sufficient durability in the areas subject to the greatest loads and wear.

Seldén carbon spinnaker poles are suitable for dinghies and for yachts up to 30 tonnes. The larger poles are tapered to optimise weight/strength requirements, and facilitate handling.

The standard pole comes with end fittings and trip line, but no bridles for the uphaul & downhaul, we offer 2 different options for this, one is a pair of bridles made up of dyneema core spliced onto the pole end fittings, the other is as above but with some bungee cord fed into the dyneema core to pull it tight against the pole when not in use - this prevents the bridles snagging on any deck fittings when stowed.

Twaron protection can be supplied as an option, Twaron filaments protect the pole from damage caused by the forestay and the shrouds.
