Ronstan 40mm Orbit BB Quin Block with Swivel Shackle

The Ronstan Series 40 Orbit Ball Bearing Quin Block is expertly engineered to deliver an optimal combination of strength, reliability, and performance. Designed for various applications, this block exhibits exceptional dynamic and static load ratings, establishing a benchmark within its category. Lightweight yet robust, the block features toughened glass fiber reinforced nylon cheeks, replacing traditional stainless steel straps for enhanced durability and efficiency.

This versatile block is suitable for an array of configurations, from single swivel blocks to complex multiple sheave systems, allowing for a high-performance purchase system, including setups for off-the-beach performance catamarans.

The Series 40 Orbit is equipped with a carbon-reinforced C-Cleat for secure rope holding and easy operation, further complemented by stainless steel adjustable cleat arms. The dual-stage bearing system within the ball bearing blocks significantly reduces friction, ensuring smooth operation even under heavy loads.

• Halyard, vang, and backstay applications on boats up to 9m (30ft).
