Designed for racing boats, ball bearing Orbit Blocks have the highest strength-to-weight ratio available. This is achieved through all-composite, reinforced polymer construction coupled with a UV stabilized Dyneema® rope link head that eliminates heavy stainless steel headposts and shackles. The result is up to 35% weight savings over comparable composite blocks with metal components - a huge difference. The Dyneema rope link opens for easy attachment to padeyes, toerail, boom bails, eyes, etc.
