BARTON ADDS TO RANGE WITH NEW SIZE 0 STAND UP BLOCK

Barton Marine, one of the UK's leading manufacturers of sail control hardware, is adding to its already successful size 0 block range with the introduction of a stand up block, which will be available in a plain bearing and a ball bearing version. These compact fixed eye blocks are perfect for dinghies and day boats as a turning block for both spinnaker sheets and size 0 mainsheet traveller control lines.

The competitively priced size 0 blocks provide an exceptional strength and consistent durability for their size. The plain bearing version allows for free running under loads of up to 300 kg, whilst the ball bearing version ensures extremely low friction resulting in super fast line speeds for weights of up to 130kg.

The Plain Bearing version block (part number 00 170) is priced at £7.50 excluding VAT (RRP).
The Ball Bearing version (part number 10 170) is priced at £9.50 excluding VAT (RRP).

Barton Marine produces over 1,200 products for use on sail boats up to 16 metres. The company continues to enhance and introduce new products to help control the power on yachts across the world. Each block is made from the most modern materials for strength and durability at sea, whatever the condition.
