Harken 12T Aluminum Vâ„¢ Block
The V block represents another breakthrough in Harken's loop block series, specifically engineered for Grand-Prix racing applications. Harken engineers have revolutionized the design by combining the axial and thrust bearings into a single bearing set of V-shaped titanium rollers. This innovative approach delivers a strong, lightweight block that offers unmatched efficiency at high loads, while maintaining the ability to spin freely at low loads for smooth easing in light air conditions.
Constructed with aluminum sideplates, titanium sheave, and captive titanium roller bearings, V blocks are built for demanding racing environments. The design emphasizes both performance and durability, making it an ideal choice for competitive sailors. The block's engineering allows for easy disassembly for inspection and maintenance, ensuring longevity and reliable operation throughout the season.
