You will find track dimensions and specifications below.

If you have mid boom sheeting or would like some assistance in specifying the size required, please feel free to get in touch.

The track itself can be purchased at the exact length required using our BARTON TRAVELLER TRACK PRODUCT

Drill Track

The most commonly used, drilled and countersunk at 100mm centres, with the first hole at 50mm from track end.

Sliding Bolt Track

To allow for a smooth profile with no visible fastenings. Also makes retro fit and easier job, as bolt can slide along the extrusion to match exsiting fastening holes. Ensure washers are fitted beneath track to ensure a good seal.

Beam Track

Use beam track when spanning cockpits or companionway hatches, where unsupported length is required. A minimum of three fastenings should be used on either side of the unsupported length – place fastenings at 100mm centres in supported sections. Ensure washers are fitted under the head of the bolt and between track and deck to ensure a seacure seal.
