PCTKLR9101 Spar Track Cleaning and Maintenance Device Abstract A device for maintaining an elongated, generally, T-shaped, spar track for a free running of mating slides and boltropes under loadings of a sail through cleaning and maintenance is described. A first internal surface region of the T-shaped track opening is comparatively wider than a second internal surface region of the track opening. The second internal surface region merges with a third external region of the track opening. The improvement comprises a compressible, flexible, pliable member for cleaning, lubricating and maintenance of the T-shaped track opening. The pliable member is prefolded and united to provide a T-shape corresponding to the shape of the track opening. The pliable member comprises a T-shape to facilitate insertion of the pliable member into the track opening and to enable the pliable member to be in slidable engagement with the track opening. A control means adjustably shapes the pliable member when inserted within the track opening to cause the pliable member to compress and to substantially correspond to the T-shape of the track opening. The inserted pliable member is in slidable engagement with the track opening when subjected to compression through the control means, and when being slidably moved to allow the effects of corrosion to be reduced, and thereby, enhance a free running of the slides and boltropes under the loadings.
