HTX Size 1 & 2 Cars

Lewmar has developed the HTX Traveller Range to complement
the HTX Block Range. This range of travellers has come from many
years of design and manufacturing experience and collaboration with
boat builders, designers, and sailors. At the core of the HTX Traveller
Range is the Captive Ball Traveller. Featuring the neat, stylish retention
of the ball bearings within the car, the Captive Ball Traveller is simple
to install and easy to remove for cleaning and maintenance without
the risk of losing ball bearings.
