Harken 45 mm Tulip Footblock
Footblocks are by definition fixed to the deck and serve as critical control points in rigging systems. Harken's tulip sheave design represents a significant advancement in block technology, engineered to address a common challenge in sailing: misaligned leads. When the lead is not perfectly aligned with the block, traditional narrower sheaves experience substantial additional friction due to off-center loading. The tulip design helps realign the lead angle, distributing loads more evenly across the sheave and improving efficiency throughout your system.
Key Features
- Tulip sheave design for improved load distribution and reduced friction
- 45 mm sheave diameter accommodates lines up to 12 mm (1/2 inch)
- Compact footprint: 91 mm length × 50 mm width × 41 mm height

- Maximum working load: 998 kg (2200 lb)
- Breaking load: 1996 kg (4400 lb)
- Lightweight at only 172 g (5/16 oz)
