I dispatched my NavTec backstay tensioner to Allspars to get the seals replaced.
Parcelforce have lost it somewhere in there system. I sent it 24 Express and I can track it to a sorting hub where it was scanned. The trail goes dead from there.
Whist I try and sort the insurance out, I'm looking for a replacement.
I have a photo of the manufactuers plate, but it's quite corroded.
It looks like it's a 6-010.
That seems ok, I remember getting about 20,000N out of it.
If that's correct, the replacement is a A370-BLE-010, I think. I'm not sure what the BLE stands for. These are expensive over £2.5k, and not that readily available in the UK.
Any ideas about a suitable, hopefully, cheaper alternative? 20250322_143225.jpgreplacement?
 
BLE means it's black anodised. CLE if you wanted "clear" / natural silver anodising...unfortunately I can't help you with a cheaper alternative and yes, Navtec equipment has got a lot harder to obtain since the split from Lewmar.
