MORFRAC morfblock.[WOOD] 8 XL – Wood and Titanium Friction Block
Built for heavy loads. Designed for discerning sailors. The MORFRAC morfblock.[WOOD] 8 XL is a standout performer in Morfrac’s distinguished [WOOD] XL range—offering 8 tonnes of safe working load capacity in a beautifully constructed package that combines titanium durability with timeless wooden aesthetics.
Perfectly suited for high-load, low-dynamic rigging scenarios, such as backstay deflectors, heavy halyard redirection, or load-sharing setups, the 8 XL delivers robust performance with zero moving parts—minimising maintenance and maximising reliability.
Key Features:
- Titanium Strength Meets Wood Craftsmanship: Precision-machined titanium cheeks offer corrosion resistance and structural integrity, while the sealed hardwood centre brings a warm, nautical finish.
- Heavy-Duty Load Handling: Engineered for working loads up to 8 tonnes, ideal for high-load points on larger performance yachts or small superyachts.
- 20mm Line Compatibility: Accommodates rope diameters up to 20mm, suitable for substantial running rigging and structural line applications.
- Friction-Based Design: No bearings, wheels, or sheaves—just smooth, controlled line movement with reduced chafe and high efficiency under static or semi-static loads.
- Maintenance-Free Operation: With no moving parts to service, the block is resistant to wear, saltwater corrosion, and mechanical failure.
- Refined Nautical Aesthetic: The rich wood grain and minimalist design complement both traditional and contemporary yachts.
The morfblock.[WOOD] 8 XL offers a unique combination of load-bearing performance and classic elegance, tailored for sailors who demand strength, reliability, and style—without compromise.
