[quote=gahamby]The AL head board and SS clew plate on my old pin top main were both fastened with brass rivets. When I redid them,
I used like metals. I replaced the grommets on the batten pockets with SS ones. When I replaced the batten pocket ends I used SS hardware.
Aquarius probably has the Moon Blocks in stock as well as the super batten. Shipping will be steep on the batten.
When I needed to replace my tiller crossbar I bought some Sch 40 3/4 AL pipe from the local metal supplier. It was 21' but local pickup.
I have some used batten pocket ends you can have. Check your PM.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by gahamby on Jan 12, 2021 - 03:27 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
