Dyneema® Link head system for easy connection. With this automatic ratchet pulley, the ratchet mechanism engages when load is applied to it, reducing the effort required to hold it, then disengages when the load is released, allowing the line to run back out smoothly and freely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the paraglider speed system is applied, the ratchet mechanism engages, automatically locking the pulley wheel in place. This decreases the effort required for the pilot to hold the speed system in place with their legs, causing less fatigue, allowing the pilot to hold the speed system on longer. When the paraglider speed system is released, the ratchet mechanism disengages, automatically unlocking the pulley wheel. This lets the paragliding speed system line run out smoothly and freely - great for rapid easing of the paraglider speed system.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eNB: Ratchet pulleys are also known as \"winch pulleys\".\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 14:1 holding power - highest available!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth easing of sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully automatic load sensing ratchet engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasily fitted and securely retained Dyneema® link head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAwesome ratchet block holding power\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuite simply, Ronstan Ratchet Orbit blocks™ have the highest holding power available. The sophisticated NC-machined sheave features Generation 2 of our patented sheave cross-hole geometry. The Series 40 delivers up to 14:1 holding power, almost double that of our nearest competitor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe unique sheave design has 8 gripping faces which directly resist loaded line movement. Traditional designs have an angled resistance to line movement. Our Generation 2 design has straight resistance faces which both distribute the load and minimise rope wear. These faces are offset from the radial line, to draw the rope down into the gripping area when under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterials\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSheave: Anodised Aluminium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBall Bearings: High compression strength carbon black Acetal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame\/Cheeks: Toughened, glass fibre reinforced Nylon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRope Link: UV stabilised, multi-strand impregnated SK75 Dyneema®\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eParaglider harness speed systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDinghy mainsheet systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMainsheet fine tune systems on sports boats \u0026amp; small keel boats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMainsheet systems on sports boats using RF7 mainsheet swivel cleat unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpinnaker and job sheets on dinghies - especially modern asymmetric classes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl line applications on larger yachts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ronstan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48825774997604,"sku":null,"price":129.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0163\/2655\/7796\/files\/ronstan_orbit_block_auto_ratchet_pulley_40mm_rf46101_-_02.webp?v=1784900137","url":"https:\/\/sickandwrong.co.uk\/products\/ronstan-rf46101-series-40-single-auto-40mm-ratchet-orbit-block-pulley-with-dyneema-link-head","provider":"The Sick And The Wrong","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
