When it comes to sailing blocks, the choice between caged and non-caged ball bearings can significantly impact the overall sailing experience and performance. Continue reading to find out the performance difference between caged and non-caged ball bearings.
Reduced Friction for Effortless Trimming Special Bearing
One of the primary advantages of caged ball bearings in sailing blocks is their ability to minimise friction. The carefully designed cage that separates the balls ensures smooth rolling motion with minimal contact and frictional resistance. This translates into lighter and more responsive control, allowing sailors to make precise adjustments on the control lines and sheets with less effort.
We're pleased to announce the launch of our brand-new 40mm dynamic block range. Available in 29 variations, all made from high-strength, lightweight glass-loaded nylon and featuring Allen's dynamic bearing technology. The result is a high-performance block range suitable for keelboats and dinghies.
The new 40mm dynamic block range has been developed over the last couple of years with a focus on the high-performance keelboat and dinghy market. It features new variations that provide wider possibilities for different systems.
Miniature Thrust Bearings Our dynamic bearing technology is a key factor in the frictionless performance you can expect from this new range and sets it apart from the competition.
