SHOW FULLSCREEN Selden\u2019s 130mm Roller Bearing Block The low resistance, high dynamic load block range now includes larger single and single\/stand ups in 100mm and 130mm blocks. The new blocks are suitable for backstays, main sheet arrangements and sheets for downwind sails on yachts of various sizes. \u201cThe boat builders we work with have been requesting larger blocks in our Roller Bearing Block range for spinnaker sheets, backstays and German sheeting, so we\u2019ve extended the range to fulfil this need,\u201d says Steve Norbury, Seld\u00e9n Mast\u2019s UK subsidiary MD. \u201cThe new blocks\u2019 low resistance at high, dynamic loads will make it easier for sailors to release a highly tensioned backstay, main sheet, spinnaker halyard or kicker, and as the blocks respond instantly to maintain delicate trimming and sail handling, sailors can just focus on what really matters \u2013 performance and boat speed.\u201d The RBB range features machined, black anodised aluminium cheeks and sheave, Torlon roller bearings for radial loads and thrust bearings for resisting side loads. The additional blocks mean the range is is now available in sizes from 60mm to 130 mm.
