A tuned 2-stage bearing system provides excellent performance across the full working load range with an integrated thrust bearing feature and the resilience to handle high dynamic or static loads. Acetal sheave, alloy cheeks and stainless fixings complete the durable package. For reliability and a long service life, these blocks are the right choice for sheets, halyards and control line applications for cruising and racing.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003eUniversal Bearing -\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003eDynamic and high static load performance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003eThe Ronstan Universal Bearing incorporates our proven 2-stage bearing system\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003eStage 1 - Under moderate loads, Acetal ball bearings ensure minimum friction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003eStage 2 - Under heavy loads, where deformation of ball bearings alone would result in increased friction, a sliding Acetal bearing on a polished stainless steel race takes over, maintaining low friction performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" minmax_bound=\"true\"\u003eAdditionally the ball bearings are configured to act as a thrust bearing between the sheave and cheeks, preventing the sheave from rubbing on the cheeks and causing friction when the line lead in and out of the block isn’t perfect.
