Forespar "ULTRA" series end fittings (both the UXP and UTR style) require a minimum of 1.500" I.D. rings for proper function. If the ends are used on rings less then 1.500" I.D. the jaws ("beak") can bind-up in the rings and with the leverage of an 8' pole, (or longer!) the ends will fail.
Forespar offers S/S mast pad eyes and sliding ring cars with 1.625" I.D. rings for use with our end fittings. Lesser diameter rings should be changed-out to avoid potential failure to ends due to insufficient clearance. Forespar® will not warrant ends that fail due to improperlysized rings on the mast. |
