Description
Overview
Zircon blocks help trimmers match sail shapes to new conditions immediately. At the core of the Zircon performance are industrial ceramic ball bearings mounted inside caged races. The cages keep these bearings separated so they don’t bunch, touch, and stop each other. The result is the most efficient small boat block Harken has ever made. Zircon blocks are available in 40- and 57-mm sheaves in single and double blocks, with or without beckets.

FAQs
Are there any general safety, maintenance, or warranty notes provided?
For additional safety, maintenance, and warranty information, it is recommended to refer to official manuals or catalogs.

Clean block and attachments frequently with detergent and fresh water, rotating the sheave to distribute water.

Do not add a fully loaded separate system to the becket.
How should the Zircon block with becket be mounted?
Use lashing or loops secured to the head of the block. Lash only through both cheeks so the lashing holds the block together, not split apart.

Flush with fresh water while rotating the parts to distribute, especially through the sheave, bearings, and sideplates.

Lash only through both cheeks so the lashing holds the block together, not split apart.
