Sheave Size: 72mm
Configuration: Single Block
Series: HTX
Application: Sailing & Marine Rigging
High-Load Performance for Modern Sail Handling
The Lewmar 72mm HTX Single Block is built for high-load control lines on performance sailboats and cruising yachts. Designed to handle serious loads with smooth efficiency, this block is ideal for sheets, halyards, travelers, and control systems where strength, reliability, and low friction matter.
Smooth, Efficient Load Handling
The large 72mm sheave provides excellent mechanical advantage and reduced friction, making trimming under load easier and more efficient. Perfect for high-performance sailing and heavy-duty rigging applications.
Rugged, Marine-Grade Construction
Engineered for harsh marine environments, the HTX block features corrosion-resistant materials and precision bearings for long-term durability, even under constant load and saltwater exposure.
Versatile Single-Block Configuration
The single-sheave design offers flexibility for a wide range of rigging setups—from primary sheets to control systems—making it a go-to choice for sailors upgrading or replacing deck hardware.
Key Features
-
High Load Efficiency: Designed specifically for high static loads where traditional ball-bearing blocks might deform.
-
Aluminum Construction: Features alloy side cheeks for maximum strength-to-weight ratio and long-term durability.
-
Side Thrust Ball Bearings: Provides smooth rotation even when the line is lead at an angle, preventing friction against the side cheeks.
-
Versatile Mounting: Equipped with a stainless steel shackle for secure attachment to deck eyes or boom bails.
-
Easy Maintenance: Open design allows for simple freshwater flushing to remove salt and grit.
