{"product_id":"allen-brothers-30mm-tiitan-single-block-with-ti-sheave-and-ceramic-balls","title":"Allen Brothers 30mm Tiitan Single Block with Ti Sheave And Ceramic Balls","description":"\u003ch1\u003e\"Titan - A thing of very great strength\" - Oxford dictionary definition.\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003cp\u003eWeighing in at only 28 grams makes the TiiTAN the lightest, strongest 30mm ball bearing pulley available on the market. This is an incredible 30% weight reduction when compared to the 30mm XHL block.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe new lightweight Titanium sheave includes our specially devised V profile, optimised for the fast running of rope without weakening the working load of the line. The V profile additionally allows smaller Dyneema or wire lines to be paired with the TiiTAN block, whilst retaining the friction reduction benefits of a larger sheave diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe TiiTAN bearing system is one of a kind. Featuring twin rows of ceramic ball bearings running on a stainless-steel axle gives the titanium sheave unmatched rolling speeds. Ceramic ball bearings also offer the added benefit of reduced friction in salt water, when compared to stainless steel bearings.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA key feature within the TiiTAN bearing system is the precision plain bearing washer. When the TiiTAN is exposed to extreme static loads, which would normally cause damage to the internal bearing system, it changes to a plain bearing block. Stopping the ball bearings from getting damaged and thus no longer performing as designed. As soon as the static load is reduced the TiiTAN returns to a high-performing dynamic block.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe load at which this change happens has undergone meticulous testing and development to ensure the block stays in dynamic mode for as long as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAluminium side cheeks hold the TiiTAN together and offer a much stronger and longer-lasting body that holds its shape under extreme loads. These side cheeks feature a chamfered rope guide to keep the block in the correct orientation as well as two lashing line holes. We recommend using thin whipping twine or kite line to lash the attachment rope in place.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe TiiTAN block is perfect for use across a wide range of watercraft, including high-performance dinghies, foiling dinghies, sports boats and grand prix yachts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eApplications can range from vang cascades, halyard turning points, backstay systems, highly loaded Cunningham, and outhaul systems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWeighs only 28grams. 30% lighter than A2030XHL.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1250Kg Breaking load.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLightweight titanium sheave.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCeramic ball bearings for faster rolling speeds.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExtremely high loading aluminium side cheeks.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cabDes\"\u003eTechnical Description\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu units\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu units\"\u003eMetric\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu units\"\u003eAmerican\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu col-12M\"\u003eBreaking Load\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e2755.78 lb\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e1250 kg\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu col-12M\"\u003eMaximum Line Diameter\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e0.31 in\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e8 mm\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu col-12M\"\u003eMaximum Working Load\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e19.61 in\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e500 mm\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu col-12M\"\u003eLength\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e1.60 in\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e40.64 mm\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"col-4 menu col-12M\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e0.06 lb\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"cell col-4 col-6M\"\u003e28 g\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen Brothers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53606416810356,"sku":"ALNA9030","price":255.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/4004\/9524\/files\/A9030__79132.jpg.1428984928.jpg?v=1761824040","url":"https:\/\/velasailingsupply.com\/products\/allen-brothers-30mm-tiitan-single-block-with-ti-sheave-and-ceramic-balls","provider":"Vela Sailing Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
