Carbo T2 Soft-Attach Blocks

Harken offers these patented, high-strength, soft-attach blocks in 29 to 57 mm sizes. They feature composite sheaves that spin freely on Delrin® ball bearings with curved bearing races. They have no metal shackles or rivets, making them the lightest soft-attach blocks Harken has ever designed.

All T2 blocks are lashed or spliced through the load-bearing center of the block, decreasing the loads on the sideplates and acting as a safety backup for the system.  

T2 Blocks

T2 blocks come in single and double configurations and can be tied, spliced, or lashed to almost anything. T2 doubles feature composite line guides that are integrated into the block head. They keep the block aligned correctly by pushing the lashing line to the outer edges of the block's head. 

T2 Loop Blocks

The T2 Loop block's on/off loop system slides through the block head and over the anchor post for a secure connection. A SK75 Dyneema® loop is included. Replacement loops available.

T2 Ratchamatic Blocks

The patented T2 Ratchamatic is Harken’s newest block to feature the T2 line’s styling and soft-attachment system. Pressure on the line engages the ratchet mechanism, which switches seamlessly from free-running to ratchet mode. Unloaded main and jib sheets run out freely during mark roundings, and asymmetrical spinnaker sheets free instantly during jibes. 

The weight of this high-strength block is only a few ounces. This is thanks to composite fiber-reinforced sideplates, hardcoat-anodized aluminum sheave, a lightweight soft-attach, and a minimum of moving parts in the ratcheting mechanism.

A length of Spectra® line with a polyester cover is included.
