Black Magic® AirBlocks®
Details Make the Difference
LOW-FRICTION CAGED BEARINGS
The center cage keeps Torlon® roller bearings separated and parallel
to reduce friction. Dirt and salt falls between rollers. Captive Delrin®
balls carry sideloads.
STRONG, LIGHTWEIGHT SIDEPLATES & SHEAVES
6061-T6 aluminum sideplates CNC sculpted to remove excess weight.
Thin-profile, deep-groove aluminum sheaves have radiused edges to
protect high-tech line.
LONG-LASTING PROTECTIVE FINISH
Sheaves and sideplates are deep-saturation Hardkote-anodized
for strength and durability, and UV-stabilized with black additive
for maximum protection. Teflon®-impregnated for a smooth,
slippery surface.
Strong, Lightweight
and Free Rolling
Weekend cruiser? Around-the-world racer? You’ll want Black
Magic® AirBlocks® aboard. With high strength-to-weight
ratios and free-rolling high-load roller bearings, these
versatile blocks are the workhorses of the Harken® line. Use
for sail controls that see lots of action including mainsheet,
runner, halyard, and
spinnaker systems.
AirBlocks® are very
easy to clean and
service. They have few
parts and no loose
balls or rollers to
misplace. Unlike blocks
that are riveted together,
three fasteners allow
quick disassembly for
service.
125 mm & 150 mm
125 mm and 150 mm AirBlocks® feature Torlon® rollers in a
self-contained center cage. Rollers stay parallel for low-friction
efficiency. UV-resistant, carbon-black Delrin® balls carry sideloads.
Used on offshore boats, these blocks offer a no “climb-out” deep
groove sheave with radiused edges to protect line. Sculpted aluminum
sideplates and thin-profile sheaves make these blocks very lightweight.
No stainless-to-aluminum contact prevents corrosion.
The 3201 soft attachment Loop block has a removable dead end
post for attachment to a padeye. Lashings can also be used.
