Description

The new Series 40 ball bearing Orbit Blocks™ provide the perfect balance of strength, performance, and reliability. They offer class-leading dynamic and static load ratings, the highest available in this size of performance blocks. Lightweight and strong toughened glass fibre reinforced nylon cheeks replace stainless steel straps used in traditional utility blocks.

The new blocks feature a wider sheave profile able to accommodate lines up to 10mm. Blocks in this range are suitable for mainsheet systems and spinnaker sheets on dinghies, off-the-beach catamarans, and sportsboats to 8m (26ft); halyard, vang and backstay applications on boats to 9m (30ft) and control line applications on larger yachts. Multiple sheave configurations allow users to create up to a 12:1 purchase mainsheet system for performance multihulls. Maximum line size 10mm.

This Ball Bearing version incorporates the 2-stage bearing system using ballbearings to minimise friction and a secondary full-contact bearing to maintain low friction across the full working load range.
