T-Cleat Cam Cleat - Small - Red w/Grey Base2-8mm(3/32" - 5/16") Rope DiameterIntensive development efforts have produced this range of cleats that provide unbeatable holding power, yet are designed for easy cleating and releasing of control lines in every application and load condition. Through the use of advanced composites, these cleats achieve superior performance while overcoming the limitations of metal alloys. Ronstan cam cleats are strong, light and corrosion free. The unique tooth profile and cam geometry are designed to grip without damaging the rope. A multi-coil spring recessed in the upper part of the cam generates near constant torque. This constant torque ensures secure cleating of even the smallest lines with minimal abrasion or rope wear and low line entry and exit efforts. T-cleats have tough glass fiber reinforced cams providing outstanding value for most cleating applications.Features: Outstanding value for most cleating applications High strength Superior holding power Lightweight Corrosion resistant Self lubricating, self-cleaning bearings Low line entry effort, easy to release Applications:Range of cleats for all requirements including control lines, jib sheet and mainsheet cleatingMaterials: Carbon fiber composite cams Long strand glass fiber reinforced polymer base PTFE impregnated Acetal slotted bearing Stainless steel multi-coil spring Specifications: Color: Grey/Red Box Dimensions: 1"H x 2"W x 4"L WT: 0.1 lbs UPC: 9316800191543

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 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! Smooth easing of sheets Fully Automatic load sensing ratchet engagemen Swivel shackle head for unlmited block rotation Stainless steel shackle head for ultimate durability and compatibility with harsh fixing points Applications: Dinghy mainsheet systems Mainsheet fine tune systems on sportsboats & small keel boats Mainsheet systems on sportsboats using RF7 mainsheet swivel cleat unit Spinnaker and job sheets on dinghies - especially modern asymmetric classes Control line applications on larger yachts Materials: Sheave: Hard anodised Aluminium Ball Bearings: High compression strength carbon black Acetal Frame/Cheeks: Toughened, glass fiber reinforced Nylon Rope Link: UV stabilized, multi-strand impregnated SK75 Dyneema® Specifications:Sheave Ø:t40mm(1-9/16")Max.
