Product details

HARKEN's Element series has been specially developed for cruising yachts. This series features a compact design in the typical HARKEN quality, where only the essentials are the focus. The result is a product, where longevity and stability play a central role.
The side plates of these plain bearing blocks are made of forged, surface-hardened aluminium and the sheaves are made of reinforced, glass-fibre nylon. The blocks are characterised by their high stability, especially when subjected to static loads.

Technical data:
  • Sheave Ø: 60 mm.
  • Length: 105 mm
  • Width: 31 mm
  • Weight: 155 g
  • Shackle pin: 8 mm
  • Max. line Ø: 14 mm
  • Maximum working load: 1100 kg
  • Breaking load: 2200 kg


Cleaning and Maintenance of Blocks:

  • Rinse blocks regularly and thoroughly with warm fresh water to remove salt and dirt (carefully assist with a soft brush if necessary).
  • For heavier soiling: Soak the block in warm fresh water with a little dish soap and move the rollers (do not use harsh cleaners).
  • Avoid pressure washers, as water and dirt can be forced into the bearing.
  • Allow to dry thoroughly afterwards to prevent corrosion.
  • Lubricate only when necessary and according to the manufacturer's instructions.
    • Note: Many modern bearings are maintenance-free or self-lubricating – improper lubrication can impair their function.
  • Disassemble only if explicitly instructed by the manufacturer, as not all blocks are designed for maintenance or disassembly.

by Michel S. Flag of France 6/4/2021 Verified purchase Variant: 86196
Very good, but they are not suitable for my use. I was wrong. I returned the six pulleys I am waiting for the refund to be able to order the correct ones! Thank you

Poor material quality
I immediately returned these blocks because the manufacturer was clearly cutting corners. The bolts, and thus I suspect all the stainless steel parts, are made of A2 stainless steel instead of A4.

For use in saltwater, this can only be a temporary solution. Rust spots, even if only surface rust, are inevitable.

I can't understand how a manufacturer like Harken comes up with this idea. The savings per block can only be a few cents at best, so what's the point?

Two stars for the fast delivery. The block is too expensive for the quality of the material.
