Barton Marine, a leading manufacturer of sail control hardware, will launch a new innovative range of Size '0' Swivel Blocks at the Tullett Prebon London Boat Show in January. The new compact range of Barton Swivel Blocks has been specifically designed for use on dinghies and dayboats and also for 5mm control line applications on larger yachts.
The introduction of the new Size '0' Swivel Blocks makes Barton one of only a few manufacturers in the world to offer a complete range of swivelling single, double and triple blocks, this is all thanks to the skill and expertise of the Barton design team.
The new Size '0' Triple Swivel block comes with the option of a becket and cam cleat that can be inverted to give both upward or downward cleating options according to application; these are particularly useful for mainsheet, vang tackles and for powerful dowhhauls.
