Series 60 Core Block™ - Single
Core Blocks™ are a true all round solution. A tuned 2-stage bearing system provides excellent performance across the full working load range with an integrated thrust bearing feature and the resilience to handle high dynamic or static loads. Acetal sheave, alloy cheeks and stainless fixings complete the durable package. For reliability and a long service life, these blocks are the right choice for sheets, halyards and control line applications for cruising and racing.
Universal Bearing
Dynamic and high static load performance
The Ronstan Universal Bearing incorporates our proven 2-stage bearing system
Stage 1 - Under moderate loads, Acetal ball bearings ensure minimum friction.
Stage 2 - Under heavy loads, where deformation of ball bearings alone would result in increased friction, a sliding Acetal bearing on a polished stainless steel race takes over, maintaining low friction performance.
Additionally the ball bearings are configured to act as a thrust bearing between the sheave and cheeks, preventing the sheave from rubbing on the cheeks and causing friction when the line lead in and out of the block isn't perfect. Particularly important for cheek blocks.
Alloy Cheek Plates
Block cheeks are manufactured from the highest quality alloy for maximum strength. Material optimisation and the cut-away design minimises weight and allows easy fresh water rinsing of salt and debris from the bearings. Cheek design has been further styled with flaring at the block throat and reduced gap between the cheek and sheave, minimising rope wear.
Universal head
The head assembly incorporates a brass bearing washer to provide smooth 360™ rotation of the post and shackle. A set screw arrangement allows the head to be locked at 0™ or 90™.
Shackles are high quality forged grade 316 stainless steel.
Features:
Class leading performance and sleek, contemporary styling
Excellent dynamic and high static load performance
Less than half the friction of the nearest competitor
Universal head with full 3-axis articulation
Head posts can be locked at 0 or 90 degrees, by using a 2.5mm Hex/Allen Key
Central hub hole can be used as a becket take-off or tie-up point
Applications:
Ideal for mainsheet, halyard and spinnaker sheet applications on boats to 12M (40')
Various control line applications on larger yachts

Series 55 Ratchet Orbit Block™ - Single - Swivel Head - Auto & Manual
Automatic Ratchet Block
Now you can enjoy the flexibility of setting up your ratchet blocks to suit yourself. Ronstan is the only company that offers a ratchet block with both auto and manual engagement modes. In the auto mode of the ratchet mechanism engages when load is applied, but switches off when it's released. This lets the sheet run out smoothly and freely-great for rapid easing of the sheet and for gybing asymmetric spinnakers. In manual mode, the ratchet mechanism can be switched on or off as required. This is the preferred mainsheet set-up for may top sailors. Try the block in both modes and see which you prefer - you really can't go wrong.
Awesome Ratchet Block Holding Power
Quite simply, Ronstan Ratchet Orbit Blocks™ have the highest holding power available. The sophisticated NC-machined sheave features Generation 2 of our sheave cross-hole geometry. Its holding power is up to 21:1, almost double that of our nearest competitior. The unique sheave design has 12 gripping faces which directly resist loaded line movement. Traditional designes have only 8 faces with an angled resistance to line movement. Our Generation 2 design has straight resistance faces which both distribute the load and minimise rope wear. These faces are offset from the radial line, to draw the rope down into the gripping area when under load.
Features:
Up to 20:1 holding power
Smooth easing of sheets
High performance cleating
Swivel shackle head for unlimited block rotation.
Stainless steel shackle head for ultimate durability and compatibility with harsh fixing points.
Automatic & manual ratchet block
Applications:
Mainsheet systems and spinnaker sheets on dinghies, sportsboats and small keel boats to 8M(26')
