Laser Spars - Standard, Radial & 4.7 |
|||||||||||||||||||||
| All of the spars in this section come fully rigged, with all necessary hardward installed.
There are three different lower mast sections available, depending on the rig that you need - Standard, Radial & 4.7. Each lower mast section mates with the one available upper mast section and the one available boom for the Laser - the only difference between the 4.7, Radial and Standard setups are the lower mast sections.

Laser® Boom Blocks |
|||||||||||||||
 |
Laser boom blocks made by Harken are available individually. They feature ball bearings that allow for faster mainsheet eases around the top mark. To install, you will need to remove both eye straps holding your current blocks on by drilling out the rivets. Upon reinstalling the eye straps with the new Harken blocks, you will need to do a little work.
Kit includes stainless steel nuts, bolts and washers for eyestraps, replacement gooseneck end boom plug and rivet (you will usually destroy the old plug while trying to remove it - plus a new plug gives a tight fit on the gooseneck pin), and special small diameter waxed twine. Also, includes complete photo instructions.

Laser® Outhall Fairlead Long Rivet |
|||||||||||||||
 |
How to properly install an outhaul fairlead and/or end boom plug. Because the outer most rivet must pass through the outhaul fairlead, the aluminum boom wall and the end plug, it must be extra long. If you use a standard rivet, not all of the parts will stay together securely. If you are replacing just the outhaul fairlead, use a standard short rivet (inboard side) and a special long rivet (outboard side). The fairlead does not include rivets and you will need to purchase them separately. The End Plug Kit includes the plug, 1 short rivet and 1 long rivet. Our suggestion is to replace both the fairlead and the End Plug at the same time. If not, rotate your existing end plug and drill a new hole for the long rivet to ensure a tight and secure mounting of the outhaul fairlead. |

Throughbolt Kit for Laser® Boom Block Eyestraps |
|||
 |
Bulletproof your boom fittings by through bolting your block eyestraps. Some sailors like to through bolt their boom fittings right out of the box for peace of mind on the race course when it is really blowing. Also a good idea if you see any corrosion around your eyestrap rivets.
Kit includes stainless steel nuts, bolts and washers for eyestraps, replacement gooseneck end boom plug and rivet (you will usually destroy the old plug while trying to remove it - plus a new plug gives a like-new tight fit on the gooseneck pin), and special small diameter waxed twine. Includes complete photo instructions. |

Laser® Spar Tape |
|||
 |
Class rules allow you to tape plastic plugs on the upper mast section to get a tighter fit and better sail shape. Traditional tapes have a limited life span and leave sticky residues. Spar Tape is very thin, self adhesive tape you can wrap around your plugs 1-4 times each depending on the desired fit.
Made of self-lubricating UHMW (Ultra High Molecular Weight) polyethylene, it allows you to separate you upper and lower mast sections a bit easier at the end of the day. Also wear resistant for long life. Sold in 10 foot lengths with peel away backing (enough for 2 or 3 upper masts). |

Laser® Mast Step Pro Wear Kit |
|||||||||||||||
 |
The perfect combination of wear protection and low friction mast rotation. Lightweight Carbo Disks protect the gelcoat at the mast step base from wear and provide the Wearite Disk with a smooth, flat mating surface for friction-free mast rotation.
- Carbo Disk (carbon/epoxy 0.8 mm thick) - Wearite Disk (PTFE-Teflon) The Mast Step Wear Plate is standard on all new Lasers®. Glued or epoxied - 3M 5200 works best - to the bottom of the maststep tube, the wear plate eliminates wear on gelcoat caused by rotation of the mast. Unprotected mast steps wear easily and are a primary cause of leaky boats. |
