Traditional Swivel Blocks
Classic Craftsmanship Meets Modern Functionality
Our Traditional Swivel Blocks are designed for sailors who demand both authentic craftsmanship and modern performance. Constructed from premium ash wood and finished with meticulous care, these blocks provide a timeless maritime look while meeting today’s rigging requirements.
Equipped with a 360° swivel fitting, these blocks allow smooth rotation under load, making them ideal where flexibility and freedom of movement are essential.
Key Features
High-Quality Ash Wood Cheeks
Each block body is carved from durable ash wood. The cheeks are glued, screwed, treated with Tung oil, and sealed with three coats of high-gloss marine varnish for maximum protection against UV and moisture.
Marine-Grade Stainless Steel Bindings (AISI 316)
Highly polished stainless steel bindings deliver superior corrosion resistance, even in harsh saltwater environments, while preserving the traditional aesthetic.
White Ertacetal (POM) Sheaves
Fitted with high-strength Ertacetal sheaves for smooth operation and reduced friction under load. Known for excellent wear resistance and dimensional stability, perfect for marine use.
Removable Stainless Steel Axle
The stainless axle is fixed during use but can easily be removed for inspection and maintenance.
360° Swivel Head
The swivel fitting ensures the block can rotate freely, preventing line twists and allowing optimal alignment in dynamic rigging systems.
