    Product Information:

    Lightweight

    Kilogram for kilogram of working load, BB and RT Orbit Blocks™ are the world’s lightest. The unique orbital design allows the bearing to only be in the active areas of the floating sheave. This minimises the mass of the inactive return race and hub.

    Weight and bulk are further reduced in the different block configurations. The ball bearing single and becket block has a through-sheave becket arrangement. The result? The lowest weight possible.

    Multi-sheave blocks have only single intermediate cheeks and an ultra-light and efficient head arrangement. This gives a 30% weight saving advantage over the nearest competitor. Other brands just link together their single blocks. This results in unnecessary double cheeks between each sheave, held together by a heavy steel channel across the top of the block.

    Highest working load in its class

    The orbital ball-bearing arrangement gives the largest possible bearing race diameter. This maximises load performance. The proven Ronstan 2-stage bearing system features high compression grade acetal ball bearings and a secondary full-contact bearing. This gives minimum friction across the full working load range.

    The floating sheave and bearing system is supported by a fibre-reinforced load frame. The design was computer modelled to be stress optimised. The Dyneema® Link is produced from FSE Robline SK75 fibre, which is 10 times stronger and lighter than steel, and provides the final connection from the block to the load point.

    Elevated T-Shirt
    Size: Small, Color: Army Green
    Cute top. Material is good quality. I wanted something more detailed than just a regular tee shirt. The neck line and cuffed sleeve gives the top a more elevated look. I ordered the army green. It looks like army green in natrual light, but indoors, the color gives off more of a brownish vibe. I found this runs true to size.

    Comfortable Fit without over compression
    Size: 38B, Color: Gentle Rose
    This is a good post surgical bra. I had a lumpectomy and it gave me enough support without being too tight. It is adjustable in the front and the shoulders. Use the size chart to get your best fit. Soft material. Comfortable enough I wore it 24/7 for a couple days. Only downside is handwashing but I will try the delicate cycle on my machine and air dry always.
