HTX End Stop With Double Control Line Sheaves

Integrated High-Load Termination & Control

The Lewmar HTX End Stop with Double Control Line Sheaves is engineered to deliver secure track termination combined with smooth, balanced control-line handling for HTX beam and traveller systems. Designed for performance cruising and racing yachts, it provides a refined, system-led solution where strength, precision, and efficient line management are critical at the ends of the track.

Double Control Line Sheaves for Balanced Operation

The integrated twin control line sheaves allow traveller control lines to be led cleanly and symmetrically from each end of the track. This dual-sheave configuration promotes even load distribution and low-friction rope flow during trimming and easing, resulting in smoother response, improved feedback, and reduced wear on both control lines and hardware, particularly important in high-load mainsheet applications.

Robust End Stop Performance

As a structural end stop, the unit prevents over-travel of the traveller car, protecting the HTX beam track, traveller car, and surrounding deck hardware from impact damage. Its solid, purpose-designed construction is capable of absorbing repeated end-load forces generated during aggressive trimming or sudden sail load changes, helping maintain long-term system integrity in demanding sailing conditions.

HTX High-Strength Composite Construction

Manufactured using Lewmar’s advanced HTX composite technology, the End Stop with Double Control Line Sheaves delivers exceptional strength-to-weight performance. The high-strength composite structure resists deformation, fatigue, corrosion, and UV exposure, making it ideally suited for sustained high-load use in harsh marine environments while contributing to overall weight efficiency on deck.

Smooth, Reliable Performance

Precision-engineered sheave profiles ensure controlled, low-friction movement under load, supporting accurate sail adjustment and reduced handling effort. By maintaining clean lead angles and efficient load paths, the HTX End Stop with Double Control Line Sheaves enhances traveller efficiency, improves handling consistency, and helps extend the service life of control lines and associated deck components.

System Integration & Application

Designed specifically for seamless compatibility with Lewmar HTX beam track and traveller systems, this end stop is suitable for both new installations and high-quality professional refits. Commonly specified for mainsheet traveller systems on performance cruisers and offshore race boats, it offers a clean, integrated solution where termination strength and efficient control-line handling must work together, backed by Lewmar’s long-standing expertise in high-load sail-handling hardware.
