This complete range of blocks combines a modern design with outstanding reliability, specifically engineered to handle high loads. Ideal for static applications, these blocks offer excellent durability thanks to a sheave that runs directly on a stainless steel axle, ensuring long-lasting performance even in demanding conditions. The side plates provide effective protection against wear and impact, while the universal head allows for flexible installation with a wide range of fastening options. Manufactured using high-quality technical materials, these blocks feature a composite sheave that provides an optimal balance between strength and weight, as well as a composite becket for models equipped with a cam cleat. The various forged 316L stainless steel attachment options, combined with 316L stainless steel hardware, ensure excellent corrosion resistance in marine environments. Polycarbonate side plates add strength and durability, while 316L stainless steel terminations (such as shackles) provide a reliable and long-lasting finish. These versatile blocks are suitable for both the marine sector and other technical fields. On board, they are ideal for mainsheet systems, halyards, boom vang or spinnaker pole downhaul systems, as well as mast base deflection setups. They are also widely used in the entertainment and events industry, particularly for lifting systems, rigging, and stage installations, where strength and reliability are essential. As such, they meet the needs of both professionals and users seeking performance, simplicity, and safety. All Wichard products are available at La Corderie in Ixelles or on request via email.
