Barton Fiddle Block with Swivel & Becket is a marine sailing block built for smooth, dependable line handling on cruising and racing yachts. This Barton rigging hardware combines a fiddle block layout with a swivel head and integrated becket, giving sailors a practical solution for control lines, sheet systems, and general deck rigging where strength, alignment, and efficient reeving matter. Offered in Size 2 and Size 5, this block range covers different rope diameters and working loads for a variety of onboard setups.

Key Features

  • Swivel and becket design: Helps improve line alignment while adding a secure attachment point for versatile rigging configurations.
  • Marine-ready construction: Built with high-grade moulded side plates and a stainless steel internal frame for strength and corrosion resistance.
  • Multiple size options: Size 2 suits rope up to 8 mm, while Size 5 handles rope up to 12 mm for heavier-duty sailing applications.
  • Proven load capability: Size 2 is rated to 370 kg safe working load, and Size 5 to 750 kg safe working load.

Barton blocks are designed for sailors who need reliable hardware in tough marine conditions. The fiddle configuration helps manage purchase systems more efficiently, while the compact, durable build makes these blocks a solid choice for refits, replacements, or new deck hardware installations. Barton is widely trusted for practical marine equipment that balances performance with durability.

For buyers comparing sizes, Size 2 measures approximately 145 mm in length, while Size 5 measures approximately 209 mm and is listed as compatible with Barton Marine ball bearing mainsheet traveller systems on larger cruising and racing yachts.
