HYE tufnol fiddle block

Two-sheave fiddle block with swivel and cam cleat. Made from seawater-resistant laminated cloth with stainless-steel fittings.
These blocks are maintenance-free and known to be exceptionally long-lived. The Tufnol sheaves have brass bearings, through which wear and friction are kept very low.

The high breaking strengths have been tested by Germanisher Lloyd (GR). The safe working load (SWL) corresponds to 50% of the breaking load (BRL).

These blocks fit exceptionally well aboard classic yachts from the 1950s and 60s and are also ideal as universal blocks.

Warning: The given rope diameter (D1) is only good for very supple, braided rope. For stiff or laid rope, choose larger blocks or blocks from the heavier series (Art.-Nr. 1122-....). Because the bottom sheave has a very small diameter, fiddle blocks are only intended for very supple, braided line.
The given rope diameters (D1) are maximum diameters. The blocks spin more easily with thinner rope.
