Small boat blocks > Small Boats

Small Boat blocks are exceptionally free-running blocks that can be used for sheets, halyards, and control lines on dinghies and smaller keelboats and for lightly loaded control lines on boats of all sizes. Small Boat blocks are offered in seven sizes and dozens of configurations so there is an ideal block for every application.

	Carbon-black filled balls and tough black Delrin sideplates maximize UV protection for years of trouble-free service Ball bearing Cam-Matic cleat engages and releases line without drawing through cam Large ratchet knob is easy to adjust even with cold, wet hands Arm stamped from 6061-T6 aluminum and Hardkote Teflon impregnated Two rows of Delrin ball bearings in a large-diameter race for smooth, free-swiveling action
	1. In-head Spacer - The in-head spacer keeps line in sheave during intermittent loading. Available in 16 mm AirBlocks" and Micro blocks.
	2. In-Head Shackle - The in-head shackle on dinghy blocks gives them a low profile. On singles it can be aligned to the front or side or it can be upended and attached to a post.
	3. Reversible Cams - The cam cleats on most Harken blocks can be reversed for up or down release.
	4. Three-Way Head - The three-way shackle system allows swivel blocks to be locked in front or side positions or left to swivel freely.
	5. Removable Becket - The beckets on many blocks are removable to allow attachment of a spliced line.
	6. U-Adaptor - The U-adaptor allows blocks with 3/8" (10 mm) posts to be attached to swivel bases or to other blocks with 3/8" (10 mm) posts.
	7. On/Off Ratchet Switch - All Hexaratche II+2 blocks feature an on/off switch to disengage ratchet in light air. Slider switches can be activated under load. Reverse rotation blocks are offered so that switches face up in applications like spinnaker sheets where rotation on the port and starboard sheets must be in opposite directions.
