Actually, you can't see the beam cross section. It is a 1/4" X 2" flat bar
as a base, then the track is a "X" in cross section, formed by two 3/16"X 1 1/2" angles.. The whole thing is welded.. (needless to say, I'm a retired welder metal worker). The traveler car is a LEWMAR running on roller bearings and which normally would have been on an aluminum X track, on a trestle.. My arrangement is much stronger. The traveler control lines lead to a Hood continuous line winch.. With the purchase I have on the line control, I can winch the car to windward in the heaviest of conditions without luffing up.. I'm pretty happy with it, if I do say so myself. Steve s/v Good Intentions |
