Description
Series 40 Orbit RT Block with Quin, Becket, Cleat & Swivel The Series 40 ball-bearing Orbit Blocks™ provides the perfect balance of strength, performance, and reliability. They offer class-leading dynamic and static load ratings, the highest available in this size of performance blocks.
Lightweight and strong toughened glass fiber reinforced nylon cheeks replace stainless steel straps used in traditional utility blocks - the perfect balance of performance and reliability. As well as traditional single swivel blocks, the range also includes single and double sheave lashing or soft attachment options through to multiple sheave blocks including those with quad and quin sheaves.
The range is extremely versatile allowing a multitude of possible systems right up to a 12:1 purchase mainsheet system for off-the-beach performance catamarans. Series 40 Orbit Blocks™ are fitted with our carbon-reinforced C-Cleat™ for secure rope holding with low entry and exit efforts, and fairleads for fast action from any angle.
Cleat arms are made from stainless steel and adjustable for setting your preferred cleating angle. Ball Bearing versions incorporate our 2-stage bearing system using ball bearings to minimize friction and a secondary full-contact bearing to maintain low friction across the full working load range.
High Load versions are designed specifically for any application where high dynamic or static loads are expected. They feature a high-strength grade 2205 stainless steel sheave & hub together with a triple bearing race to maintain low friction at very high loads.

Sailing — frequently asked
- How do I size a block for my sailboat?
- Match the block to the line diameter it will carry and to the working and breaking loads of the system (sheet, halyard, control line). Makers publish load ratings and line-size ranges — choose a block whose working load comfortably exceeds the real-world load, without going so large it adds needless weight.
- What is running rigging?
- Running rigging is the moving lines that control the sails — sheets, halyards, and control lines — as opposed to standing rigging (the fixed wire that holds up the mast). Running rigging should be matched to the boat’s blocks, clutches, and winches for smooth, reliable sail handling.
- How do I maintain sailboat winches and hardware?
- Rinse with fresh water after sailing, keep sheaves and bearings clean, and periodically service winches (disassemble, clean, and re-grease per the maker’s instructions). Marine-grade stainless and good maintenance keep hardware working smoothly when loads are high and timing matters.
