This block is in very good condition.  Here are the details from my measurements:

Sheave Diameter: 1 1/4"

Rope/Wire: Max 3/16"

Sheave Material: Brass

Body: Everything else is stainless

Thimble: there is a thimble attached to the mounting eye that can accomodate 3/16 wire or rope.  You can just remove this and use a shackle if needed.

Item FG 181



I recently purchased the inventory of a small sailing shop that closed 5 yrs ago.  The shop had both new and used items.  To date I have successfully sold and shipped over 25 items.  For added confidence you can check out my 100% positive feedback under my other user name pjkinz.  I've been on ebay since 1999 and hope to pass on some great values to sailors through my new fuzzysailing account.
