Harken Stand-Up Bases

harken stand up basesStand up bases allow a wide variety of blocks to be held upright, swivel freely, and pivot for fairleads under load.

Ball and Socket Swivel Bases

The ball and socket design allows blocks to swivel freely and pivot to 45 degree angle. Bases may be fitted with springs but block won't hit the deck without them. Select blocks carefully as the maximum working load of either base is often less than corresponding blocks.

Stanchion Mount Base
The 061 stanchion mount base attaches blocks to 7/8 in. or 1 in. (22 or 25 mm) stanchions or pulpits and is often used to lead furling lines to the cockpit. Allows blocks to swivel and pivot for fairleads.

Midrange Stand-Up

Use the 1573 stand-up base with Midrange blocks. The low-profile design is ideal as a mast base halyard lead block. Combine the 1573 with single Midrange ratchet or Fiddle blocks. Doubles and Triples will fit the 1573, but their safe working loads are higher than the base.

Springs
Springs are used to support blocks on padeyes, eyestraps, bases and traveler cars. Keeps blocks from hitting the deck.

Snap Shackles
Snap shackles fit a wide variety of Small Boat blocks and make them removable. Many use a snap shackle on the lower vang block so that it can be moved from the mastbase to the toerail to use it as a preventer.

Stand-up Boots
Made of durable flexible PVC, stand-up boots hold blocks up without snagging lines. The 369 fits 40 mm and 57mm Carbo and Black Magic® blocks. The 370 fits 75 mm Carbo Blocks.


Harken Trigger Cleats

harken trigger cleatsThe Nash Trigger cleat has a unique mechanism that allows you to release highly loaded lines with complete control. Pulling the sheet down on the trigger trips the pawls and frees the sheet. The trigger serves as a snubbing surface to control release.

In light air, or once the trigger releases the load, the cleat operates like a normal cam cleat. The Trigger cleat is constructed of rugged stainless steel. It is very reliable in heavy air. Trigger cleats are ideal on highly loaded systems like mainsheets, vangs, and even for some halyards. They have developed a cult-like following in some classes where the crew loves the ability to spill the mainsail reliably during close-quarters maneuvering. The 335 cam mounting bracket attaches the Trigger cleat to 3.00 in. (76mm) low-profile triples. It fits the 064, 152 and 411.

Use for: - Vangs
- Control Lines
