Description
Ronstan Series 50 Fiddle Block – RF51500:
All purpose (AP) blocks are a great all-around solution. Self-lubricating Acetal polymer sheaves running on polished stainless steel races perform equally well with dynamic loads and high static loads.
For durability and a long service life, these blocks are the right choice for sheets, halyards and control line applications for cruising and racing.
