Description and Features The rudder head is a crucial component of the steering system, ensuring secure attachment and efficient operation of the lifting and lowering mechanism for the rudder blade. Made from high-strength, corrosion-resistant composite materials, it is known for its durability and ability to withstand the effects of water, salt, and dynamic loads. The head is designed for a 28mm diameter rudder shaft. Design Features: Quick Rudder Attachment: The internal reinforcing ribs of the housing form a cone shape, allowing the rudder to be quickly and securely fixed. To install, simply insert the rudder into the housing, and to remove, rotate it around its axis and carefully pull it out. This mechanism is ideal for frequent mounting and dismounting of the rudder. Built-in Cam Mechanism: The housing features an integrated cam mechanism connected to the rudder blade. This provides precise control and reliable fixation of the blade in the desired position. Stable Mounting for Long-Term Use: When long-term attachment of the rudder is required, additional mounting options are available. The user can choose the most suitable method from the provided options (see the attached photos). Advantages:

Convenience: Easy installation and removal of the rudder.
Flexibility: Option for temporary or permanent fixation.
Reliability: The design is engineered to withstand challenging operational conditions, ensuring stable performance of the steering system.

The rudder head is ideal for catamarans, dinghies, and other vessels where high reliability and frequent adjustments to the steering system are essential.

Optimized Rudder for the Optimist Class Our engineers have designed a rudder specifically for promising racers in the Optimist class. The unique construction of this rudder will help future champions achieve outstanding results faster. Advanced Manufacturing Technology The rudder is produced using advanced technology that combines high pressure with thermal shock. This method significantly increases the compression of the fiberglass laminate compared to traditional vacuum molding techniques. Key Benefits of High Compression: Layers Form a Monolithic Structure: The fibers of each layer bond seamlessly with the adjacent layer, creating a uniform material without weak points. Improved Strength, Rigidity, and Durability: The rudder demonstrates exceptional resistance to loads and wear. Enhanced Resilience: Its ability to quickly return to its original shape after stress ensures superior flexibility, especially critical when tacking in waves. Included Components The set includes a rudder and rudder fittings, ensuring full readiness for installation and use. Ideal Profile and Hydrodynamics A smooth, high-quality surface finish on the rudder reduces water resistance, increasing speed. The cross-section of the rudder is based on the NACA 0009 hydrodynamic profile, ensuring superior stability and maneuverability. Compliance with International Standards The rudder is fully compliant with the latest IODA rules, ensuring its suitability for international regattas.
