Antal Tulip Sheave 45 mm, Mekton
A genuine Antal replacement tulip sheave for wide lead angles with minimal footprint. The 45 mm Mekton (fibre-reinforced resin) wheel uses self-captive side ball bearings for low friction and a composite axial/radial bearing to manage side loads—ideal for compact organisers and cross-deck leads.
Why it’s a smart upgrade
-
Handles acute lead angles while keeping decks tidy and low-profile
-
Low friction thanks to self-captive side ball bearings
