57mm T2 Ratchamatic Block, Red Sheave, HAR2160-RED
The patent-pending T2 Ratchamatic is Harken’s newest block to feature the T2 line’s styling and soft-attachment system.
The
weight of this high-strength block is only a few ounces. This is thanks
to composite fiber-reinforced sideplates, hardcoat-anodized aluminum
sheave, a lightweight soft-attach, and a minimum of moving parts in the
ratcheting mechanism. All T2 blocks are lashed or spliced through the
load-bearing center of the block, decreasing the loads on the sideplates
and acting as a safety backup for the system. Lashing allows ratchet
adjustment close to the deck. Lashing or splicing provides a variety of
options for securing the block at exactly the right height to maintain a
fair lead.
Pressure on the line engages the ratchet mechanism,
which switches seamlessly from free-running to ratchet mode. Unloaded
main and jib sheets run out freely during mark roundings, and
asymmetrical spinnaker sheets free instantly during jibes. T2
Ratchamatic blocks are clearly labeled with high-contrast directional
markers for correct reeving and trimming direction.
Use for mainsheet and spinnaker systems on beachcats, dinghies, and sportboats.
A length of Spectra® line with a polyester cover is included.

Made exclusively for Harken dealers, this celebration of 50 years of Harken innovation adds distinction and function to your boat.
