Wichard Single Block 55mm with Becket

The Wichard 64106 Single Plain Bearing Block combines robust construction with a versatile attachment system, making it an excellent choice for demanding sailing applications.

Its 55 mm composite sheave runs directly on a stainless steel bush, creating a simple and durable plain bearing system. This construction is specifically designed to withstand high loads and is particularly suitable for applications with relatively static loading.

Designed for 12 mm rope, the 64106 offers excellent strength while maintaining compact dimensions and a total weight of only 200 g.

Swivel Head with Becket

The swivel head provides greater flexibility during installation and allows the block to align naturally with the direction of the load.

Wichard’s universal head design provides a wide choice of fastening possibilities, making the block easy to integrate into different rigging configurations.

The integrated becket provides an additional attachment point for the end of the rope. This makes the 64106 especially useful when building purchase systems where an additional fixed rope point is required.

Designed for High Loads

The Wichard 64106 has a working load of 720 kg and a breaking load of 1500 kg, providing dependable strength for demanding marine applications.

The head configuration and load straps are manufactured from 316L stainless steel, offering excellent strength and corrosion resistance.
