Does anyone who may have upgraded to a Strong Track (or similar feature), or who has an old NS30 sail that is beyond useful life, have a set of the 7/8 inch cast bronze sail slides that they would be willing to part with?

Bainbridge Int., is a manufacturer, of a 7/8" cast Bronze external sail slide. The p/n is Q110. A sail maker in your area should be able to get you a set.
Good luck

I’ve been looking for used bronze slides for awhile now. You can still buy them new but they are pricey. The stamped stainless steel slides are inexpensive but bind easily on the track even with lubrication. I’m using the Ronstan plastic slides and they seem to work well. I’m curious if anybody has used the case bronze slides versus the plastic slides.
There has to be hundreds of those bronze slides wasting away in the bottom of boxes or drawers somewhere.

Simple solution…
Get StrongTrack.
Slides like butter.
