Identify spinnaker pole fitting brand

Please view attached images and assist me to identify the brand of spinnaker pole fitting my boat has. I took it off the mast track last year and seem to have misplaced it.

Re: Identify spinnaker pole fitting brand

Interesting.
The pole fitting looks like one of those male ends that were designed to fit into a "Bell" shaped socket, the socket having a pin that engaged the circumferential groove in the pole fitting.
If so, that's the really old design, not all that often seen today.
More modern designs use a pin on the mast car that plugs into a female socket on the pole.
Still others, (that you obviously don't have,) simply use a "hook" on the pole and a "ring" on the mast car.
If yours is the "Bell" style you might have a hard time finding that piece of hardware.

Thanks for your very prompt response. One of the things I was strugglung to do was describe it acurately. Knowing it's a bell type fitting has made it easier to find a replacement. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
