Karver KBRC 160 Carbon Titanium Block

The KBRC160 is the carbon version of our range of KBR blocks devoted to Racing and Super Yachts. It is a very low friction lashing block designed for larger loads. It is aboard the Ultims, Imocas, and many Super Yachts. Very few blocks on the market can display a coefficient of friction of 2% on very high loads. Titanium sheave, titanium rollers, ceramic side balls and painted carbon flanges. The KBRC is certainly the most efficient block on the market.

Our Part # KARPF330016C | Karver Part # PF330016C

 

Features:

  • Reliable and resistant even under very heavy load
  • Carbon flanges
  • Titanium sheave for weight and resistance
  • Titanium roller bearing and lateral ceramic balls on treated titanium raceways (Karver patent)
  • Compact tulip sheaves
  • Impressive longevity of the bearings (due to the low friction)
  • Anti-overturning shape. The pulley remains straight whatever the direction of the effort
  • Very generous central space to come and fix several lashings (low runners for example)
  • The lashing in the middle is also too big a guarantee of safety. If the pulley breaks (for external reasons of course!), The lashing will still retain the rope while the installation is secure.
