Details

SAILSetc design and manufacture. A beautifully simple design of block for lines up to 0.8 mm Ø - simply designed better - that allows real versatility in use. The sheaves are stainless steel ball races and the block has the lowest friction of all the similar items we have tested. This is the larger of two otherwise identical items and has enough strength for radio yachts up to Ten Rater size. Suitable for Dyneema line from 10 kg up to 75 kg breaking strain. It can be dismantled and maintained with no danger to the bearings.

Where the angle between incoming and outgoing lines will be greater than 90 degrees it will be necessary to cut away a little of the block cheeks as shown above.

10 mm sheave, 19 mm long, 15 mm wide, 10.5 mm thick.

SAILSetc blocks have black plastic bodies, which may be injection moulded, turned, or printed. The sheaves are stainless steel, but not marine grade stainless steel, and have hardened rust-resistant balls. Fasteners provided are marine grade stainless steel. Other metal parts, if any, are marine grade stainless steel.
