Double block with D-shackle, swivel, plain bearing, suitable for lines Ø8–12 mm. SWL 650 kg.
The Seldén PBB 50 double block with D-shackle is a robust and reliable block from the PBB series (Plain Bearing Block), specifically designed for high working loads on medium-sized sailing yachts. This double block is equipped with plain bearings that deliver excellent performance under static and semi-dynamic loads. The D-shackle provides a safe and quick attachment point to sheets, halyards or other parts of the rigging. With a safe working load (SWL) of 650 kg and a breaking strength of 1300 kg, this block is ideal for medium-duty applications.
The block cheeks are manufactured from glass fibre reinforced polyamide, a material that offers an excellent balance between weight and strength. The stainless steel strap around the block provides additional strength and a long service life, even in the demanding marine environment. The plain bearings are maintenance-free and deliver smooth operation under high loads. A key feature is the locking button that allows you to easily switch between swivel and fixed mode, making this block exceptionally versatile for various applications on board.
This double block is ideally suited for sheets, halyards and other applications on medium-sized sailing yachts of 28 to 38 feet. The swivel configuration allows the block to rotate freely with the load direction, reducing wear and ensuring smoother operation. The two sheaves provide a mechanical advantage of 2:1 or 3:1 when combined with a single block. Suitable for lines from Ø8 to 12 mm, making this block perfect for standard sheet and halyard lines on cruising and racing yachts. The Seldén PBB series is known for its outstanding value for money.
