Description
Harken 57mm-75mm Black Magic Air Low-Load Blocks are a top favourite of Big Boat performance racers and cruisers. These lightweight, free-running, powerful performers are used for sail controls that see lots of action: mainsheet, runner, halyard, and spinnaker systems. A centre cage keeps Torlon® roller bearings separated and parallel to reduce friction. Shackle blocks lock in two directions or swivel to keep line from twisting.
Low-load blocks have red isolators. They use Torlon® rollers and 316 stainless steel shackles. Standard blocks have 17-4 PH stainless head posts.
