Features:
- Some small line rigging applications do not require ball bearing blocks, so Ronstan has just introduced its Shocks Sheaveless compact blocks
- Ultimate durability
- With no moving parts SHOCKS provide ultimate durability and are maintenance free
- They are ideal where sand and grit would compromise a bearing system or where regular flushing out isn't possible
- Their gentle 3-dimensional geometry is kind on lines, but is strong enough to cope with poor leads
- Designed to fit a wide array of small diameter rigging uses
- Shocks are claimed to be prefect for moderate load uses where minimal purchase is required
- The compact Shocks are carefully engineered to work well even if the load alignment is not straight
- Made from anodized aluminum they weight only 2.5 g, yet can carry up to 350 kg of break-load force
- The Shocks soft attachment compatibility make them suitable for use in numerous high performance dinghy and small sailboat rigging applications including tweakers, vangs, trapezes, cunninghams, barber haulers and kit bridles
- They are also handy on larger boats for uses such as ladder and motor hoists, lazy jacks, sail covers, and tie-downs
- They are available in four color choices to help keep complicated rigging configurations more organized
