HIGH-LOAD SNATCH BLOCKS—ULC BEARING TECHNOLOGY
Our new line of High-Load Snatch Blocks is flying off the shelf. Thanks to Teflon®-impregnated ULC (Ultra Light Composite) bearing technology, the sheaves are highly efficient and turn smoothly. Lightweight Loop attachments, opening sideplates and ease of operation allow crew to quickly fasten them wherever needed. Product Brochure
SWITCH T-TRACK BATTCAR SYSTEMS—INNOVATIVE REFINEMENT
Harken switch systems cut stack height in half by dropping mainsail cars alternately onto port and starboard storage tracks. In an innovative refinement to this award-winning design, we have added a spherical becket on the headboard car that allows the car to articulate and pass through the switch. This further lowers stack height and protects the headboard from damage. Available for boats 40 ft (12 m) and up. Mainsail and trysail versions offered in black or silver. The 50 mm system must be custom ordered. Product Brochure
B1135 WINCH—PEDESTAL, ELECTRIC, HYDRAULIC DRIVES
Harken has designed this wide-body winch for use on megayachts and Grand Prix racers 90 ft (27 m) and up. The wide-diameter drum allows sheets to be held securely under high loads. The direct 1:1 drive promotes high-speed line retrieval when sheeting. The B1135 comes in pedestal, electric and hydraulic drives, and in self-tailing and top cleat configurations. Product Brochure
