PAC 52 Through Deck Fitting Design

This PAC52 through-deck titanium headstay strop fitting was re-designed by Kingspoke to reduce chafe and eliminate corrosion caused by the original aluminum part.

The chafe issue was identified and subsequently re-engineered. A 3D printed model was produced to confirm final design and used for dry fitting the part onboard. The final part was milled from titanium to combat the corrosion issue of the original aluminum. A final polish was performed to minimize friction and chafe before shipping directly to the boat.
