High-Load MXEvo Friction Block

The Wichard MXEvo combines impressive load capacity with compact dimensions and optimized weight.

Its specially designed rope track and guiding fins help keep the line correctly positioned while reducing unnecessary rope wear.

The MXEvo also incorporates a becket function, allowing it to be used when creating purchase systems.

Ideal for:

• Mast-foot blocks
• Running backstays
• High-load running rigging
• Purchase systems
• Yacht and racing sailboat rigging
• Applications requiring compact, high-strength deck hardware

Allen Head Pin with Retaining Leash

The Allen head pin provides a secure connection while allowing straightforward installation of the rope.

A retaining leash keeps the pin attached to the MXEvo during opening and closing, reducing the risk of losing the pin during installation or maintenance.

The pin is forged from high-resistance Duplex stainless steel, while Wichard specifies 316L stainless steel for the MXEvo construction
