C-Tech and Harken have developed a new style stud and receptacle design that is more robust than the traditional system. It features an extended stud shoulder with a clearance fit so that the bending moment is moved away from the thread root diameter. The design also ensures the load is consistent regardless of receptacle rotation, especially on upper battens where receptacles rotate on the studs through tacks and gybes. Only C-Tech receptacles are compatible with both high-load and standard Harken studs. All C-Tech Receptacles with a Titanium head are compatable with the new Harken Studs.
