The sophisticated NC-machined sheave features Generation 2 of our patented sheave cross-hole geometry. The Series 40 delivers up to 14:1 holding power, almost double that of our nearest competititor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unique sheave design has 8 gripping faces which directly resist loaded line movement. Traditional designs have an angled resistance to line movement.  Our Generation 2 design has straight resistance faces which both distribute the load and minimise rope wear. These faces are offset from the radial line, to draw the rope down into the gripping area when under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSimple and secure attachment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dyneema® Link is easily fitted and is retained securely by a moulded retainer clip.
