Product Information

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.
