This single-foot block with integrated jammer is used for controlled line lead on deck or at the mast base. It is relevant for sailors who want to control and secure a line in one integrated product. The block functions as a fixed turning point that makes it easy to keep the line organized when working with halyards, trim lines, or control lines. The foot block is constructed with reinforced composite cheeks and a composite sheave running on a spherical plain bearing. This provides smooth rotation and low friction under load. The integrated aluminium jammer grips the line securely, allowing you to lock it quickly without separate fittings. The construction is light, strong, and designed for the marine environment, where durability and reliability are important. The block is stackable, making it possible to mount multiple units on top of each other if your system requires it. The foot block is typically used on deck, at the mast base, or other fixed mounting locations where line lead needs to be combined with a locking function. It is used in halyard systems, small purchase setups, trim functions, and general control systems. The jammer makes it possible to adjust and lock the line with one hand. The product fits common rope diameters and can be used in both cruising and racing setups. Its compact shape and low weight make the block easy to integrate into existing installations. The stackable design is practical on boats where deck space is limited. The reinforced composite makes the block durable and virtually maintenance-free. The aluminium jammer provides a secure grip, even when the line is wet or loaded.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE Preparation: Clean the mounting area and check the line for the correct diameter.

Installation: 1 Secure the foot block with suitable bolts or fittings. 2 Lead the line through the sheave and check that it runs freely. 3 Test the jammer's grip under light load.

After use: Rinse the block and jammer in fresh water. Check the sheave and bearing for free running.
