Series 40 Ratchet Orbit Block™ - Single - Auto - Swivel Shackle HeadAutomatic RatchetWith automatic models, the ratchet mechanism engages when load is applied, but switches off when it's released. This lets the sheet run out smoothly and freely-great for rapid easing of the sheet and for gybing asymmetric spinnakers.Awesome Ratchet Block Holding PowerQuite simply, Ronstan Ratchet Orbit Blocks™ have the highest holding power available. The sophisticated NC-machined sheave features Generation 2 of our sheave cross-hole geometry. The Series 40 delivers up to 14:1 holding power, almost double that of our nearest competititor.The unique sheave design has 8 gripping faces which directly resist loaded line movement. Traditional designs have an angled resistance to line movement. Our Generation 2 design has straight resistance faces which both distribute the load and minimise rope wear. These faces are offset from the radial line, to draw the rope down into the gripping area when under load.Simple and Secure AttachmentThe Dyneema® Link is easily fitted and is retained securely by a moulded retainer clip. The flexible link can be left with one end attached to the block when fitting - no more lost shackle pins.The system is compatible with Dyneema®/Spectra® strops, webbing and carbon connection points - much more so than steel loop tops or shackles.Smooth Easing of SheetsWith auto models the sheet runs out smoothly and freely as soon as the ratchet mechanism disengages. Low Profile Stand-Up Kit Allows 0™ or 90™ AlignmentStand-up kits feature a clatter-free rubber boot. You can attach the Dyneema® link so that the block is aligned with the stand-up base or across it. It's a neat low-profile solution which allows full articulation.Features: Up to 14:1 holding power - highest available!

Series 75 Core Block™ - SingleCore Blocks™ are a true all round solution. A tuned 2-stage bearing system provides excellent performance across the full working load range with an integrated thrust bearing feature and the resilience to handle high dynamic or static loads. Acetal sheave, alloy cheeks and stainless fixings complete the durable package. For reliability and a long service life, these blocks are the right choice for sheets, halyards and control line applications for cruising and racing.Universal BearingDynamic and high static load performanceThe Ronstan Universal Bearing incorporates our proven 2-stage bearing systemStage 1 - Under moderate loads, Acetal ball bearings ensure minimum friction.Stage 2 - Under heavy loads, where deformation of ball bearings alone would result in increased friction, a sliding Acetal bearing on a polished stainless steel race takes over, maintaining low friction performance.Additionally the ball bearings are configured to act as a thrust bearing between the sheave and cheeks, preventing the sheave from rubbing on the cheeks and causing friction when the line lead in and out of the block isn't perfect. Particularly important for cheek blocks.Alloy Cheek PlatesBlock cheeks are manufactured from the highest quality alloy for maximum strength. Material optimisation and the cut-away design minimises weight and allows easy fresh water rinsing of salt and debris from the bearings. Cheek design has been further styled with flaring at the block throat and reduced gap between the cheek and sheave, minimising rope wear.Universal headThe head assembly incorporates a brass bearing washer to provide smooth 360™ rotation of the post and shackle. A set screw arrangement allows the head to be locked at 0™ or 90™.Shackles are high quality forged grade 316 stainless steel.Features: Class leading performance and sleek, contemporary styling Excellent dynamic and high static load performance Less than half the friction of the nearest competitor Universal head with full 3-axis articulation Head posts can be locked at 0 or 90 degrees, by using a 2.5mm Hex/Allen Key Central hub hole can be used as a becket take-off or tie-up point Applications: Ideal for mainsheet, halyard and spinnaker sheet applications on boats to 14M (46') Various control line applications on larger yachts Materials: Sheave: U.V. stabilized Acetal Cheek body: Aluminium Alloy Ball Bearings: High compression strength carbon black Acetal Shackle, head post & hub: Grade 316 stainless steel Specifications:Sheave Ø:t75mm(3")Max.

Series 55 Ball Bearing Orbit Block™ - Single - Becket - Swivel HeadLightweightKilogram for kilogram of working load, BB and RT Orbit Blocks™ are the world's lightest. The unique orbital design allows the bearing to only be in the active areas of the floating sheave. This minimises the mass of the inactive return race and hub.Weight and bulk are further reduced in the different block configurations. The ball bearing single and becket block has a through-sheave becket arrangement. The result? The lowest weight possible.Multi-sheave blocks have only single intermediate cheeks and an ultra-light and efficient head arrangement. This gives a 30% weight saving advantage over the nearest competitor. Other brands just link together their single blocks. This results in unnecessary double cheeks between each sheave, held together by a heavy steel channel across the top of the block. Highest Working Load In Its ClassThe orbital ball-bearing arrangement gives the largest possible bearing race diameter. This maximises load performance. The proven Ronstan 2-stage bearing system features high compression grade acetal ball bearings and a secondary full-contact bearing. This gives minimum friction across the full working load range. The floating sheave and bearing system is supported by a fiber-reinforced load frame. The design was computer modelled to be stress optimised. The Dyneema® Link is produced from FSE Robline SK75 fiber, which is 10 times stronger and lighter than steel, and provides the final connection from the block to the load point.Features: Ultra Lightweight Low friction 2-stage Orbital ball bearing system Highest working load in its class Low profile and compact High performance cleating Swivel shackle head for unlimited block rotation Stainless steel shackle head for ultimate durability and compatibility with harsh fixing points Ultra low profile integrated becket Applications: Mainsheet systems on dinghies, sportsboats and small keelboats to 9M(30') Spinnaker sheets on dinghies, sportsboats and small keel boats to 9M(30') Halyard, Vang and Backstay application on boats to 8M(26') Control line applications on larger yachts Ideal use for mainsheet systems and spinnaker sheets on dinghies, sportsboats and small keel boats to 9M(30') Also ideal with halyard, vang and backstay applications on boats to 8M(26') Spinnaker sheets on sportsboats and small keel boats (lateral lead blocks) Control line applications on larger yachts Materials: Ball bearings - High compression strength carbon black Acetal Stage 2 bearing - Carbon fiber reinforced, PTFE impregnated Nylon Frame/Cheeks - Toughened, glass fiber reinforced Nylon Rope Link: UV stabilized, multi-strand impregmented SK75 Dyneema® Sheave: Carbon fiber reinforced, PTFE impregnated Nylon Head fitting: Grade 316 stainless steel.

Tufnol Snatch Block for Wire & Fibreoptic CablesThe Barton wire snatch block has been developed specifically as a low maintenance static free block. The Tufnol sheave means that static cannot build up in the block and cause electrical discharge. Tufnol is a bearing-grade material so it gives a low-friction surface for the wire to run on and minimizes the number of moving components, giving it reliability and durability. The cheeks are made from marine grade 316 stainless steel as is the pin and retaining nuts. This block is ideal for commercial applications in the toughest of environments.Specifications: Safe Working Load: 350kg (770lbs) Break Load: 1500kg (3300lbs) Max Rope/Wire size: 10mm (3/8”) Weight: 78grms (2.8oz) Length: 190nn (7 ½”) Width: 115mm (4 ½”) Thickness (Maximum): 53mm (2 1/16”) Fibreoptic & Wire BendingFibreoptic cables and wire ropes require a minimum bend radius to stop failures. This block is suitable for both fibreoptics and wires up to 10mm in diameter. The large sheave means that the bend radius of the wire is not compromised and provides an additional engineered safety factor to prologue the life of wire if continual movement around the same section of wire is required.
