MORFRAC morfblock.[XL] 5 XL – Titanium Sheave Friction Block
Compact strength, minimalist design. The MORFRAC morfblock.[XL] 5 XL is the lightest of the large-format XL range, offering serious load-handling in a compact footprint. Designed for static and semi-static applications, it features a solid titanium sheave, 3D-printed composite cheeks, and comes complete with a high-strength Dyneema® loop attachment—delivering a rugged, maintenance-free alternative to traditional pulley blocks.
Whether used in vang cascades, inboard barber haulers, halyard deflectors, or structural line routing, the 5 XL provides low-friction performance with high mechanical simplicity, ideal for high-load, low-speed line paths.
Key Features:
- Titanium Sheave: Machined from aerospace-grade titanium for exceptional strength, wear resistance, and performance under load.
- 3D-Printed Composite Cheeks: Precision-built from reinforced composite material, combining lightweight design with excellent rigidity and impact resistance.
- High Load Rating: With a Safe Working Load of 5 tonnes, the 5 XL handles critical applications on performance cruisers and offshore yachts.
- Line Size Compatibility: Accepts ropes up to 18mm in diameter—perfect for halyards, stays, or load-sharing applications.
- Optimised for Static Loads: Designed specifically for low-dynamic line systems, where reliability and longevity matter more than high-speed sheave rotation.
- Dyneema® Soft Loop Included: Supplied ready-to-rig with a durable Dyneema® loop for simple, secure attachment.
- Maintenance-Free: No moving parts or mechanical internals means zero servicing and no risk of bearing seizure or corrosion.
The morfblock.[XL] 5 XL brings Morfrac’s advanced composite engineering and friction-based design into a highly capable, mid-sized solution—ideal for sailors who prioritise strength, simplicity, and long-term dependability.
