About Schaefer Traveler System

schaefer travelers,  traveler car, traveler track, schaefer While most mainsail working loads are fairly predictable, it is easy to overlook "shock" loads that may be experienced by a traveler system.

The Toughest Car on the Track

Jibing, for example can produce shock or impact loads well beyond normal sailing loads, as can the flogging of the boom and mainsail during reefing.

All three sizes of Schaefer Traveler track are extruded from thick walled aluminum. This allows the track to maintain dimensional stability and structural integrity better than thinner designs even when subjected to bending, twisting or compound curves. Each traveler track section is black hardcoat anodized for maximum corrosion resistance and is treated with a Teflon impregnation to extend the life of the coating while reducing friction on the track surface.

Each Schaefer traveler car contains separate "wheels" that hold "captive" stainless steel ball bearings. This captive wheel design with full radius races distributes bearing loads evenly to a greater surface contact area than other plastic bearing designs to ensure smooth running. They also allow you to remove the car for inspection without the loss of bearings. Each one is hardcoat anodized for durability.

Control blocks use Schaefer's Delrin ball bearing sheaves and some use Sure Grip Cam cleats for ultimate control. Schaefer traveler systems provide you with several combinations to give you the purchase needed to tame your mainsail.

Choose from numerous adapters allowing your Schaefer blocks to plug in to your Traveler Car. Cap off the track with endstops made from UV treated Urethane to take the shock loads possible from your system.
