The series of TyeTec® Loop blocks: TyeTec® Loop products have one thing in common: they are particularly lightweight and highly load-bearing components for rigging and deck. TyeTec® Loop blocks and what makes them special can be reduced to two components: the sheave and the loop that carries the sheave through the central hole, thus absorbing the force acting on the sheave. All other components, such as side plates, connectors, and so on, are almost insignificant for force transmission. For this reason, TyeTec® Loop blocks can be exceptionally lightweight even under very high breaking and working loads. TyeTec® Loop blocks (code grey) with long loop: 'High load' loop blocks with two-stage ball bearing. For greater comfort while cruising or racing - especially when the line has a long run without load, e.g., under-reinforced mainsail halyard, mainsheet, etc. Under load, the force is transferred to the sliding bearing. Side plates: machined aluminum, hard anodized. Central axis: stainless steel 1.4404. Sheave: POM or aluminum (60). Loop: Dyneema® SK 75. Loop closure: stainless steel toggle 1.4404. Velcro strap: yes. Wear protection: Dyneema®.
