Harken Element Blocks

Harken Element Blocks

When Harken sets out to create a block for sailors who have always believed they didn’t need Harken, what happens? The new Element block. The name hints at its essence: everything that doesn’t contribute durability or strength is stripped away. The result is an economical block that does a Harken job. Element blocks accept line from 8 - 16 mm. They are offered in singles, doubles, triples, fiddles, and footblocks in 45, 60 and 80 mm sizes.

Shackle blocks lock in two directions or swivel to keep line from twisting

Removable headpost lock allows shackle to be fixed or to swivel.

Side plates combine metal construction forged into compound curves to protect the sheave.

Side plates are hardcoat-anodized to resist corrosion for years.

The proven bearing system runs on tough composite structure for less corrosion and long life.

Sheave is designed to achieve load targets with the least amount of material possible — to help keep the price down.
