Hi guys,
been a while since I have been on here but after some help from the brains trust. does anyone have any idea where I can source the below track for my companionway hatch. im not sure if it is standard sail track as it's flat on the bottom for my hatch to slide on. I repaired and painted my old tracks but have somehow misplaced them, left on the dock I think!any ideas would be amazing. cheersNathan





UA10247 here is similar but not exact but it could do. Paskal and Bunnings and numerous others have a similar one

Thought GJames could have it but it is not apparent - you could contact them with photo they may be able to advise

Thanks for that.
Only problem with that sort of rope/sail track is my hatch will run straight on the hard lip instead of a nice flat surface as my above pics.
Thanks for the G James link I will for sure send them a message.
Ok good point. If you find anyone doing that extrusion now please advise as I can use it for new cabin top whole sliding hatch system. Else I will use that sail track from Bunnings and some flatbar from there also to make the lip.

Sheet jointer could work
