Allen's traveller shows how new technology can be used

Allen deck hardware products are mainly intended for the dinghy and small catamaran end of the market, where two main factors have influenced product development.

The two are the use of high strength, small diameter lines and the impact of computer aided design and production technology (in which Allen has made significant investments).

The new range of Allen travellers (A4589) are good examples of how new technology can be used. They are machined from a single piece of high grade aluminium and result in perfectly smooth running ball tracks and are guaranteed not to explode.

Our new self tacking jib track (A4491) is attracting lots of interest, and is the product of choice for Capricorn, the leading Australian F18 builder. This is the first fully ‘production engineered’ version on the market; it's easily fitted, allows full articulation and has ends which are safe and trap free.
