Schaefer offers several ways to bring your halyards and control lines back to the cockpit. Our Halyard lead blocks feature our M-Series design with aluminum sheaves for a strong yet light lead. Fixed and hinged lead blocks feature Delrin ball-bearing sheaves with stainless steel cheeks for a strong yet smooth lead. Half-Moon mast base blocks feature aluminum sheaves running on Nomex/Teflon bearings for smooth running and exceptional static load strength.
Extremely low profile, fixed fairlead block keeps control lines and halyards close to the deck. The hinged version is for mounting on spars or on deck. It adjusts to variable halyard and control line angles to provide a proper lead, and its narrow base plate allows multiple mounts. Both have open race ball bearings to allow salt, dirt, and debris to be easily flushed out.
