Barton Marine Size 2 Double Swivel-Becket Block

The Barton Marine Size 2 Double Swivel-Becket Block is built for sail-control systems that need a strong, compact change of line direction. Barton Marine's plain-bearing block construction uses molded sheaves and corrosion-resistant internal hardware to keep the line running smoothly under load. Through-bolted and riveted construction adds security at the side plates, while the specified swivel, becket, upright, or stand-up configuration suits the intended rigging layout. The block is sized for cruising and racing applications where dependable load handling matters more than unnecessary complexity.

This block range size provides high performance and load values in a variety of assemblies & configurations. The range has an internal stainless steel frame and precision components. Also available in ball bearing sheave options. The lightweight design makes this range perfect for a multitude of uses on every yacht. Suitable for up to 8mm (5/16") rope.

For the Size 2 Double Swivel-Becket Block, match the block to the rope diameter and safe working load specified for the model, and keep the lead aligned with the sheave to avoid unnecessary side load.
