Seldén PBB High Load Plain Bearing Block 45mm Sheave / max. 5mm Rope

Seldén Plain Bearing Block for High Static Loads

The Seldén plain bearing blocks are specifically designed for handling very high static loads, such as those found on backstays. Thanks to their robust construction and optimised material combination, they offer maximum load capacity and durability for demanding applications on board.

Technical Details

• Cheeks: Stainless steel for maximum strength and corrosion resistance
• Sheave: Anodised aluminium – lightweight, strong, and designed for extreme loads
• Sheave groove: Optimised for wire rope or Dyneema for the best guidance and minimal wear
• External reinforcement: In the load axis for additional stability and safety under highest loads
• Block type: Plain bearing – ideal for static loads such as backstay or checkstay applications

Special Features

• High load capacity: Developed for static loads where maximum stability and minimal friction are required.
• Plain bearing technology: The higher the load, the better the block performs compared to ball bearing blocks.
• Versatile application: Ideal for backstays, checkstays, or similar static trimming and tensioning scenarios.

Note: Blocks are essential components on any sailing yacht. Check them regularly to ensure safety and performance under all conditions.
