Main Headers
Forestay & Backstay Equipment
Here we list forestay and runner levers and the associated blocks. To see how these might be combined in a backstay, this note may help.

Hull Plates
Or chainplates, shroud plates, bowsprit plates; call them what you will. As well as the standard items listed here, we can make these to customer's specifications in steel or bronze.

Mastbands & Cranse Irons
Off the shelf mastbands with 2 or 4 eyes. The bronze ones are OK up to about 1 ton - roughly 4mm 1x19 stainless wire, and the galvanised ones about 1.5 tons. Be warned that on any craft over about 20 ft, these are unlikely to be strong enough as cranse irons.

Rigging Screws
or bottle screws, straining screws or turnbuckles. For an overview of standing rigging, perhaps this>note may help.

Shackles
Bronze, galvanised and stainless - D, Long D, Bow (or Harp) and twist.

Snap Shackles
Three types of traditional brass snap shackles

Thimbles
Apart from the bronze rigging thimbles, these are at the less exciting end of things too.

Wire Rope
For an overview of standing rigging and wire breaking loads, this note may help.
