Harken 3299 2.3T High-Load Sailboat Snatch Block
HARKEN 3299
High-Load Snatch Block
These multipurpose blocks are a must on racing yachts of all sizes. Opening side plates make them easy to deploy, allowing crew to quickly fasten them wherever needed. They're perfect for temporary leads, line deflection, and static line functions requiring small adjustments. A strop soft-attach is fixed on one side, but is easily removable on the other. The strop carries the block's primary load and articulates for a fair lead. The Velcro® strap is permanently attached to one side plate and holds the block securely closed when side plates are aligned, even under the highest loads. The strap has a broad reflective tab for easier operation with gloves.
Harken composite bearing technology (ULC) ensures sheaves turn smoothly and maintain efficiency under extreme loading. Snap-fit Torlon® bearings carry side loads. An integral head spacer prevents Hard Lube-anodized aluminum side plates from deflecting and binding. The wide sheave allows a range of line diameters.
