Sparcraft Pneuvangs
Sparcraft's Pneuvang is unique in that it utilizes 1 or more Pneumatic Gas Shocks as a Spring to support the Boom. Designed for a wide range of boats, Pneuvangs attach to the mast-mounted Vang Toggle and to the Boom Vang Attachment Lug with 14mm Pins (9/16") (included). Units feature an Aluminum Sheave at the top to double the power of any Vang Tackle.

For recommendations on a new Vang for your boat, contact us with Boat details including current Mast and Boom Sections.

For Boom-mounted Vang Attachments, See: Isomat Boom Sections or Sparcraft Boom Sections.
