Duotone Standard Tube+ Special Top/Foot Batten Replacement Set

Maintenance of Duotone Standard Tube+ Batten Replacement Set

Cleaning: Rinse the batten parts with fresh water after use in salt water, and wipe them dry with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and dishwashing detergents, as they can affect the plastic parts.

Drying: Let all parts dry completely before putting them back in the bag - especially the head and tip, where salt and moisture can otherwise build up.

Storage: Store the set in the included display bag in a dry, cool place out of direct sunlight. Do not leave the parts in a hot car or in direct sunlight for a long time, as heat and UV light can break down the material over time.

General care: Check the parts regularly for cracks and wear, and replace worn parts in good time to avoid damaging the sail. Never lubricate the plastic parts with oil or silicone spray unless the manufacturer recommends it.

Can I use the set for all windsurf sails?

The set is designed for sails with Duotone’s Standard Tube+ batten system. Check your sail’s batten pockets before ordering to make sure the parts fit.

Is it difficult to replace a batten in my sail?

No, most batten parts can be replaced directly on the beach without special tools. Remove the old batten, install the new one, and tighten the pocket again.

Why are several tip sizes included?

Batten tips come in different widths (A-E), so you’ll always have the right size ready, no matter which batten in the sail needs repairing.

What do I use the display bag for?

The display bag keeps all the spare parts together and makes it easy to find the right part when you need to repair the sail on the beach or at home.

What’s the best way to store the spare parts?

Rinse the parts in fresh water after use in salt water, let them dry completely, and store them in the bag in a dry place away from direct sunlight and heat.
