Optiparts EX2142 - Classic Vang Block for Laser® / ILCA® – 20 mm Control Block
Optiparts EX2142 is a classic replacement vang block designed for Laser® and ILCA® dinghies, used in the kicking strap (vang) system to guide and redirect control lines while maintaining efficient load transfer between boom and mast.
This block features a 20 mm sheave optimized for smooth rope movement and reduced friction during vang adjustment, helping sailors achieve precise boom tension control and consistent sail shape trimming.
Suitable for lines up to 6 mm diameter, the EX2142 is designed to handle the repetitive load cycles generated during active sail trimming while maintaining reliable performance in marine conditions.
Ideal for replacing worn, seized, damaged, or corroded original vang blocks in routine rigging maintenance, club fleet servicing, and spar system refurbishment.
