HOLTBLOCKS 010_01160mmHolt blocks have just got a‘hole lot bigger!’ This the latest inthe Dynamic blocks has brokenthe mould in terms of compositeengineering. Manufactured frommetal replacement carboncomposite material the performanceof this block is outstanding.The largest of the Dynamic range(so far!) this block was developedfor mainsheet and spinnakersystems for sports boats up to9 metres.BLOCKSDYNAMICBLOCKS20mmHolt’s new 20mm Micro block rangeshares principles incorporated in the40mm dynamic bearing system.• Cold forged side straps withHolt’s rope-kind head detailing.The narrow strap also allowsexcellent articulation.• Lightning holes reduce weightand allow easy access to flushthe stainless steel bearing system.• Large central hole enables lineto be tied through for cascadeor other purchase systems;this negates the need for anadditional becket.• The recessed 6mm rivet providesgreater strength in the criticalbearing area.THE DYNAMICBEARING SYSTEMHolt Dynamic Bearing (Patent applied for)The new HOLT DYNAMIC BEARING is sobrilliantly simple the only question is why wedidn’t think of it sooner. Inserting a stainlesssteel rail into a composite bearing you gain ahuge increase in working efficiency with thesmallest possible increase in weight.It is in the larger diameter blocks that the newHolt Dynamic Bearing really comes into its own.The unique rail system allows the most weightefficient construction without compromise toworking efficiency. In our dynamic load test thenew Holt Dynamic Bearing out-performed allother configurations tested by 50% or more!30mmThe 30mm Dynamic blocks offerunrivalled performance, setting a newstandard. Its design maximisesefficiency under load with theDynamic bearing system enhancedwith a lightweight yet durable exterior.The cold forged radiused headincreases articulation and allowsrope friendly connection. Thiscomprehensive range is ideal formainsheet systems; kicker systemand sheet/halyard lead applications.Twin stainless steelball bearing cassetteStainless steel railsComposite hub(Patent applied for)40mmDynamic tests show these blockshave the bearing performance ofan equivalent 50mm delrin ballbearing block.Ideal for mainsheet systems,spinnaker launch and retrievalsystems and lead blocks forasymmetric spinnakers onboats up to nine metres.• Cold forged soft radiused head.• Anchor formed fixing pointreduces rivet size.• Stainless steel dynamicinner bearing.www.holtallen.com
