Wichard Triple Block 55mm with Cam

The Wichard 64308 Triple Plain Bearing Block is designed for sailing systems where multiple rope passes, high strength and convenient line adjustment are required in one complete unit.

Its three 55 mm composite sheaves operate with a plain bearing system on stainless steel bushes. This simple and robust construction is designed to withstand high loads and is particularly suitable for relatively static operations.

The triple-sheave arrangement makes the 64308 particularly useful for creating powerful multi-part purchase systems, helping reduce the effort required when controlling heavily loaded lines.

Swivel Head, Becket & Cam Cleat

The swivel head gives the block greater freedom to align with the direction of the load and provides flexibility during installation. Wichard’s universal head design also allows a wide choice of fastening arrangements.

The integrated becket provides an additional attachment point for the rope, allowing the end of the line to be secured directly to the block when creating a multi-part purchase system.

The built-in cam cleat allows the working line to be secured and released directly at the block. This makes adjustment faster and more convenient, particularly in applications where the line needs to be controlled frequently.

Built for Demanding Marine Use

The head configuration and load straps are manufactured from 316L stainless steel, providing high strength and excellent resistance to corrosion in the marine environment.

The block also features lightweight POM cheeks, composite sheaves and a composite cam saddle. The terminal fitting is manufactured from 316L stainless steel.

With a working load of 480 kg, breaking load of 1500 kg and total weight of 550 g, the Wichard 64308 provides a strong and practical solution for demanding onboard rope systems.
