The Barton T01180 TUPHblox Single Fixed Eye Block is part of the robust and lightweight TUPHblox range, engineered for both marine and industrial use. Constructed from Tufnol phenolic resin laminate with cotton reinforcement, it offers exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to harsh environments.
The block runs on brass bearings for smooth and reliable operation, while 316 marine grade stainless steel bindings ensure structural integrity and corrosion resistance. The fixed eye allows secure attachment using rope or shackle, making it suitable for a wide range of rigging configurations.
Tufnol construction provides non-conductive properties, making this block ideal not only for sailing yachts but also for industrial applications, including explosive environments and hot air balloon systems. The material is produced through a multi-layer laminated and heat-compressed process, ensuring long-term performance and resistance to UV and weathering.
