Swageturn Insulator Stud/Stud
Description
The Backstay Insulator Stud/Stud is a purpose-designed yacht rigging component used to electrically isolate a section of the backstay while maintaining a strong and secure connection within the standing rigging system.
Featuring a swage stud terminal at each end, the insulator allows wire rope to be permanently swaged into both ends. Available in a range of sizes, with the listed size referring to the diameter of wire rope the swage terminals are designed to suit.
