Ronstan’s ILCA® lower vang unit is the new benchmark in design and performance. Thoroughly tested on the water by leading ILCA® sailors, the vang unit features optimised geometry to minimise line chafe and friction which provides a purchase advantage, and easy cleating and releasing to stay in full control when playing the vang from any angle while inboard or hiking.
The primary purchase sheave features a high load, low friction, stainless steel HHL sheave. Geometry of the cleat arm pivot point is close to the clevis pin attachment to minimise stress on the mast attachment point.
ILCA® licensed part available for purchase through ILCA® approved builders and dealers.
