Lewmar 72mm HTX Upstand Kit for Blocks
The Lewmar HTX Upstand Kit raises compatible HTX block off the deck to improve line lead and accessibility. By keeping control lines correctly presented when unloaded, it enhances trimming efficiency and reduces friction and chafe in high-use deck areas. Manufactured using Lewmar HTX high-strength composite technology, the upstand kit delivers excellent strength-to-weight performance and long-term durability. An ideal upgrade for performance cruising and racing yachts seeking improved deck ergonomics and cleaner control line routing.
Features:
Improved Line Presentation at Deck Level
The Lewmar HTX Upstand Kit for Blocks is designed to enhance line handling efficiency by raising compatible HTX blocks off the deck, improving rope lead and accessibility. Engineered for performance-focused sailing systems, it ensures control lines remain correctly presented, even when unloaded, supporting faster, more confident sail handling.
Purpose-Designed Upstand Function
By elevating the block above the mounting surface, the upstand kit helps maintain optimal lead angles into clutches, cam cleats, or winches. This reduces friction, minimises chafe, and improves overall system efficiency, particularly in high-workload areas where quick, reliable engagement of control lines is critical.
HTX High-Strength Construction
Manufactured using Lewmar’s advanced HTX composite technology, the Upstand Kit delivers excellent strength-to-wait performance without introducing unnecessary mass. Its reinforced construction is designed to withstand sustained loads, shock forces, and harsh marine conditions, ensuring long-term durability and dependable performance on deck.
Consistent, Reliable Performance
The stable upstanding support keeps he block correctly oriented, helping prevent lines from dropping flat on deck when slack. This contributes to smoother trimming, reduced handling effort, and improved ergonomics at the control position, an important advantage during manoeuvres or frequent sail adjustments.
