Introducing the Harken Element Block: Essential Engineering, Maximum Performance
When Harken set out to create a block for sailors who believed they didn’t need one, something remarkable happened—the Element Block was born.
True to its name, the Element Block focuses on the essentials. Anything that doesn’t contribute to its strength and durability has been stripped away, resulting in an efficient, economical block that still delivers the performance you expect from Harken.
The innovative design features sideplates made from forged aluminum, shaped with compound curves for added strength. These blocks are both contemporary in style and built to endure the toughest conditions. With a minimal yet robust design, the Element uses just the right amount of metal to protect the sheave, coupled with a proven journal bearing system. This smart design allows Element blocks to be significantly more affordable compared to Harken’s previous options.
For enhanced durability, the sideplates are hardcoat-anodized to prevent corrosion, and the composite bearing sheave is crafted to withstand wear and tear over time.
The Element Block: Harken engineering at its best—delivering the quality you trust at a value you’ll appreciate.
