Protexit Blocks
™

When you race HARD, and you rip through as many hoists and douses as we
do sailing W-L legs all the time, you should expect to start wearing through the
sideplates of your halyard exit block right? Wrong! Thanks to Harken Protexit ™
blocks, wear from side angle loading is not inevitable. Protexit’s all-aluminum,
wear-resistant housing carefully ushers line in and out no matter the angle.
There’s more: Protexit blocks offer higher working loads than any small boat
exit blocks we’ve ever made. Protexit aluminum sheaves rotate on sleeve
bearings with Delrin sideload balls so they don’t deform in extreme
®
conditions, while reducing wear on the halyard, too.
Strong. Durable. Gentle. Protexit blocks protect the race results you work
hard to achieve. Blocks are clearly labeled with part
number, line diameter, maximum
working load, and directional
arrows for line direction.
