Extruded aluminium is an excellent material for making masts. This is where Selden has earned its reputation as world leader in mast making. Today Selden offers a full range of masts and rig equipment in both aluminium and carbon including booms, spinnaker poles, Rodkicker rigid vangs, furling systems and rig linings. All rigs are custom-made, through every calculation and detail, lor each individual boat. We know how much depends on the rig, and there is no room for compromise.

Formula understands the science of Carbon Fibre technology, and engineer rigs using finite element analysis. This enables us to confirm the loads before a single piece of pre-preg carbon fibre is cut.

RMR-Reefing masts
RMR reef masts are constantly updated and with their proven drive technology are particularly designed for sailors who need to reef the mainsail simply and safely when sailing with a small crew.
The RMR system makes it easier to handle both large and small yachts. Reefing the mainsail to the required size can be done by one person from the safety of the cockpit.
The drive for the luff rod is provided by a virtually maintenance-free hydraulic drive with self-braking worm gear, spiral bevel gears and helical drive gears in combination with a robust Danfoss hydraulic motor.

Rondal constantly strives to optimise style and structural soundness. The combination of engineering and style found in our winch bases, mast/spreader connections, spreader lights and so on reflect our attention to detail. Masthead, gooseneck and many other components are designed, cut and milled with the aid of computer assisted machinery to ensure accuracy and cost-effective production. To counteract any problems associated with corrosion, Rondal welds all aluminium tangs, brackets and other fittings. When stainless parts are fitted, maximum effort is made to avoid corrosion in the future. The mastheels are constructed from plate material, either to fit in a standard Rondal maststep or on a Rondal hydraulic mastjack. All masts are completed with a two component polyurethane paint finish. Clients can choose almost every possible colour.
Made of Alustar aluminium plate
In order to bring down the weight and the centre of gravity of our aluminium masts, Rondal developed the alternative method by utilizing ALUSTAR aluminium plate material for the construction of masts.
These masts are engineered and produced to just cover the required Moments of Inertia over the full length of the mast in both longitudinal and transversal direction.
When decided to request price information please send a deck- and sailplan. With this information we can inform you better.

Hall seamless carbon spars are the perfect complement to the high-performance cruising yacht. The light weight means less pitching and motion in a seaway. It also gives the designer flexibility to put weight into the interior instead of the keel (righting moment).

Two ranges of masts of cruisings: Z-SPARS Silhouette and Z-SPARS Furlers, results of a vast investigation near the customers which were led then put to the point by the team of Z-Diffusion.
While treating it in an industrial way, we privileged the quality of the production, instituting in our factories the Japanese principles, namely: "quality circle and another motivation of the personnel".
Guarantee of a product of quality, each mast is identified by the personal code of the assembler who carried it out.
All these profiles are equipped with exclusivenesses "Z":
- head of mast with hat with integrated anchoring (model deposited),
- fitting of spreader with integrated anchoring (model deposited),
- possibility of storing its spinnaker pole on the mast.

It's no coincidence that carbon fibre is used in aeroplanes. Carbon composite combines stiffness and strength with low weight. Selden low-weight carbon spars have accentuated longitudinal stiffness. This means that forestay tension can be substantially increased. All experienced racing sailors know what this means in terms of increased performance. The combination of greater stiffness and reduced weight will bring you beyond the speed limits.

Hall seamless carbon-fiber masts have no peer in the combination of light weight, stiffness, and the ability to tune easily for changing conditions. Hall is the choice of the winning Cup crew in the last two events.

Selden aluminium spinnaker poles give you fast and safe spinnaker handling. All the fittings have well-rounded edges to prevent personal injury and damage to equipment. The extrusions are lightweight and very durable, and are fitted with pole savers to shield the pole against damage from forestay and shrouds.

Selden booms have a wealth of sophisticated features and can be equipped with a variety of reefing systems to suit different boats and the needs of different sailors. The booms can be fitted for traditional slab reefing or Single Line Reef, or be used for furling masts. The boom extrusions are relatively deep in relation to their width, allowing a lighter extrusion with high resistance to vertical bending. This makes them perfect for use with modern, stiff sailcloth and efficient Rodkicker rigid vangs.
