Masthead sheaves

[Rskelton]

I am in the process of refurbishing a 1970 E-30 and have dropped the mast.
I would appreciate any help with where to find replacement sheaves. There are 4 of them, two smaller ones the same diameter, and then two larger ones of different diameters.

Ericson used a number of different manufacturers for masts; I got replacement sheaves from www.rigrite.com, they may be able to help you out.

Sheaves

I took mine (E29) to a machine shop and had them ground (.001) on one side and had the grooves polished. They work like new and it only cost $25.00.

Check the www.rigrite.com. May be expensive, but works every time... The yard where I have my mast "serviced" right now orders sheaves from them.

All good advice. Also, Charleston Spars acquired many of the old Sparcraft parts from those days, and Kenyon may also have some parts.
Good hunting!
