Barton Marine High Load Eye 22mm Bore [60453]

The Barton Marine High Load Eye with a 22mm bore is ingeniously designed. Its ergonomic shape maximizes strength and efficiency. Thanks to the HV500 hard anodizing and curved surface profiles, it keeps friction extremely low. With excellent strength - to - weight ratios, it's perfect for kickers, tweakers, genoa barber haulers, and any place where saving weight and high strength matter. The HV500 hard anodizing offers amazing low - friction performance. After over 300 hours on an abrasion test machine, there are no visible signs of wear on the anodized coating. Features include a high load capacity compared to standard plain bearings. Across the range, the block has an average increase in friction of only 15%, a 272% increase in strength, and a 51% reduction in weight (data based on using 4mm D12 SK75 Dyneema core). Available in six sizes, made from marine - grade aluminium with a hard anodized finish. These lightweight high - load eyes are great for various on - board uses like lazy jacks, barber haulers, mast base tidies, and stanchion lead eyes. The smallest size can be attached with a 3mm line and has a 6mm bullseye diameter, while the largest size uses a 16mm line with a 28mm bullseye diameter. Quick Guide (pdf).

Using the Barton Marine High Load Eye is easy. First, pick the right size according to your needs. If you need a smaller attachment, the size with a 3mm line and 6mm bullseye diameter is a good choice. For larger applications, go for the size that uses a 16mm line with a 28mm bullseye diameter. Attach it to the appropriate location on your boat, such as for lazy jacks or barber haulers. When using it, avoid overloading it beyond its capacity. To maintain it, regularly check the anodized coating for any signs of damage. If you notice any, it's best to consult the manufacturer. Also, keep it clean by washing it with mild soap and water after use in saltwater to prevent corrosion. Store it in a dry place when not in use.
