This Nautos block is a single through-deck type with an aluminum sheave, in the heavy load version, and it carries a stainless steel plate cover. Working load is 408.23 kg and breaking load is 1202.02 kg. It accepts rope up to 14.28 mm and weighs 90 g. It is 55 mm long and 115 mm wide, and it mounts on holes 63 x 38 mm apart.
Our take
The 408.23 kg working load and the 14.28 mm rope limit are the figures to check against your line on this through-deck block. The 63 x 38 mm hole spacing sets the fixing pattern you need to drill.
From our buying guide
Ball-bearing blocks give the lowest friction on lines running under moderate loads. Plain bearings have more friction, but handle very high and static loads.
Check before you buy:
- A ratchet block is rated for the full sheet load.
- Any becket's load limit suits the job, since a becket can be rated below the block itself.
- A soft-attach block will be looked after, since Harken warns soft attachments are prone to wear and recommends them only for regularly maintained race boats.
