DescriptionRutgerson Roller Battens are a widely used solution for furling sails worldwide. Originally an innovation from Rutgerson, the range now covers multiple sizes. The roller batten rolls up smoothly on furling systems and permits use of a roller furl cover; it is also suitable for furling mainsails. Two versions are available: standard and reinforced (reinforced models indicated by suffix R).
