Steven:

Is Delrin the stuff they make cutting board out of?

John,

I replaced the teak under the genny and jib tracks fours years ago with
Delrin. I had the  plastic supplier cut strips four feet by 1/4" (size
of the teak), it has worked great and  virtually eliminated that
problem. I am currently replacing the teak strip under the track located
on the mast with Delrin this year. Any good plastics supplier should
have stock and custom cut the material. The total cost was approx.
$60.00.

Regards,
Stephen

John,

I'm assuming that you have the flat track.  I can't help but believe
that it will be easier for you to remove the track to replace the
spacer.  You'll probably also find it easier to replace the bolts, too.
