Folding mast stepsWe have research many folding mast steps made from aluminum, metal, plastic or stainless steel but found these to be the best value available. These steps are "lightweight, rattle free, aesthetic, strong and foldable". These steps are easily unobtrusively fitted to the mast providing safe and secure footholds while climbing or working the mast. The "Mast Step" is manufactured from a special combination of
"Nylon/Glass fibre" which together with its design gives the step
enormous strength. With a 3% additive, it makes the mast step UV
resistant and prevents material degradation. The steps weighs only 165grams each (weight is always a consideration for products up a mast), and when folded does not snag ropes or sails due to the 'snag-free' design. At anchor or on a mooring the steps do not rattle in the wind and there is a choice of colors to match the mast - white, black and grey. Due to its construction and the materials used, it is easy to adjust
the step to fit the radius of the mast. Simply tape a sheet of sand
paper at the position where the step is to be fitted, rub the saddle
of the step up and down until the step snugly fit's the mast
curvature. When using the steps to climb the mast, one simply unfolds the steps in front as one ascends and folds them behind him as you descend the mast. The steps also provide a secure foothold but it is always strongly recommended to use a harness with a safety line attached. There are many benefits of using the new reinforced "Nylon/Glass Fiber" Mast Step: - Lightweight - Corrosion free - No rattling - No electrolysis as with stainless steel fitted to aluminum - Available in three colors to match the color of the mast Retail price $24.00 each (Shipping and taxes not included) |
