Schaefer's 8 Series stainless blocks add strength and brilliance to your deck. Featuring Delrin™ sheaves, forged stainless steel "D" shackles, bolted construction for strength and stainless steel cheeks polished to a high luster, these blocks add beauty and confidence to your boat.
All 8 Series blocks feature high-strenth, low-friction Nomex™/Teflon™ bearings for smooth operation under the toughest conditions. UC versions feature aluminum sheaves utilizing Delrin ball bearings with a Nomex/Teflon bearing.
Unlike Schaefer's Series 7 blocks with the same size sheave, these Series 8 blocks are not only stronger, but with bolted construction, the sheaves can be replaced in the field - a big plus for cruisers.
