Glass Outrigger Snubbers
Glass outrigger snubbers create a smooth, low-friction surface for your halyard lines to pass through. They prevent line chafing and ensure clean deployment and retrieval of your outrigger system. Sold in pairs for port and starboard.
- Glass construction for smooth operation
- Prevents halyard line chafing
- Sold in pairs
- Clean deployment and retrieval
Smooth Lines, Clean Spreads
Line chafing kills halyard lines prematurely and creates weak points that can fail during a fight. Glass snubbers eliminate this by providing a polished, low-friction surface for the halyard to pass through. Your lines last longer and your outrigger system operates smoothly.
The glass material is harder than the monofilament halyard line, so it does not develop grooves or rough spots over time. Replace them when they chip or crack, but under normal conditions they last for years.

Low Friction Glass
Polished glass creates a near-frictionless surface for halyard lines. Less friction means smoother deployment, easier retrieval, and less wear on your halyard.
Chafe Prevention
Rough surfaces on outrigger hardware chew through halyard line. Glass snubbers eliminate this wear point, extending the life of your halyard significantly.
Sold in Pairs
One for each outrigger. Matched pairs ensure consistent operation on both sides of your spread.
How to Install Glass Outrigger Snubbers
- Thread your halyard line through the glass snubber
- Position at the point where the halyard contacts the outrigger
- Secure the snubber in place
- Verify smooth halyard movement through the glass
- Repeat for the second outrigger
