Blue straggler stars in old open clusters exhibit a Kraft break in rotation, with rapid rotators above the break and slow rotators below, indicating their envelopes behave like those of single stars.

Blue straggler stars in old open clusters predominantly appear near the terminal-age main sequence because mass transfer from asymptotic giant branch donors enriches their cores with helium.
In low-extinction galactic open clusters fast and slow rotators populate distinct parts of the extended main-sequence turnoff while differential extinction inflates the turnoff width and biases age estimates in others.
