55 BB Orbit Double Link Head Block | RORF55201

55 BB Orbit Double Link Head Block | RORF55201

£57.73

Less friction, ultimate performance

Ball Bearing Orbit Blocks boast the highest strength-to-weight ratio available. This is achieved through all-composite reinforced polymer materials and a Dyneema rope link head. Their precision allows the optimum number of ball bearings in loaded areas and eliminates them in active areas. Ineffective mass is reduced even further through fibre-reinforced composites in the block head, cleat arms and beckets.

Lightweight – Kilogram for kilogram of working load, these are the worlds lightest.

Highest working load in its class – The orbital ball-bearing arrangement gives the largest possible bearing race diameter to maximise load performance.

Simple and secure attachment – The Dyneema Link is easily fitted and is retained by a moulded retainer clip.

Low profile and compact – The flexible Dyneema Link provides controlled rotation of 0 – 90 degree orientation and connects directly to the head of the block rather than an intermediate headpost, reducing weight and giving a low profile with full articulation.

Sheave Diameter: 55mm
Max Rope Diameter: 10mm
Maximum Working Load: 800kg
Breaking Load: 1600kg
Weight: 134g
