The Fast Release fairleads are designed with low-friction, angled stainless steel line guides on the exit side of the cleat. This specific angled lead keeps the line away from the cam mechanism to eliminate unexpected recleats during maneuvers. These fairleads are ideal for fast spinnaker take-downs during mark roundings and any situation where rapid release is crucial. Constructed from tough, abrasion-resistant composite, Harken Cam fairleads provide durability and reliable performance.
