STEERING BLOCKS JP3 steering blocks are designed to compliment the other steering components to provide a complete system. All blocks feature : Ertalyte sheaves that provide a wear resistant surface that is suitable for either wire or vectran Sealed stainless steel deep groove bearings to ensure low friction, smooth quiet running. Blocks are available in four sizes Blocks are available in three housing styles to suit all installation details. Aluminium bodies are anodised in our in-house anodisation plant to ensure quality and prevent corrosive action.
IMPORTANT : JP3 sheave's bearing are designed to take loads both ways, in and out. Most market sheaves, runners or deck blocks are made to be efficient one way and create extra friction when reversing load. BLOCKS STYLESJP3 blocks are avaible with five styles :
