TMS "Round Thimbles" are designed to replace blocks in applications where the line passing through the centre is not constantly moving i.e. under static load.
Round Thimbles add an extra safety dimension because one line is effectively passing through a loop in another line - if the thimble should fail the line is still captive and will not break free.
Applications include:
- Backstay Cascades
- Kicker Cascades
- Jib Clew Control Lines
- Jib Barber Haulers and Tweakers
