HTX Single Block with Fiddle, Becket and Swivel Head

Compact Power for Advanced Control Systems

The Lewmar HTX Single Block with Fiddle, Becket and Swivel Head is engineered to deliver high mechanical advantage, precise alignment, and reliable load handling in demanding sailing environments. Designed for modern performance yachts, it combines efficiency, strength, and adaptability in a compact package ideally suited to complex control systems.

Fiddle Configuration with Integrated Becket

The fiddle arrangement provides increased purchase within a minimal footprint, allowing significant loads to be managed with reduced handling effort. An integrated becket offers a secure termination point for control lines, making the block especially well-suited to cascades and fine-tune systems where clean routing, compact geometry, and consistent load transfer are essential.

Self-Aligning Swivel Head

Fitted with a smooth-running swivel head, the block automatically aligns with changing lead angles as loads shift through the system. This self-orienting design reduces sideloading and friction, promoting efficient rope flow while extending the service life of both rope and hardware in dynamic trimming applications.

Smooth, Dependable Performance

Optimised sheave geometry ensures smooth, low-friction rope movement under load, supporting responsive trimming and controlled easing. Even load distribution across the fiddle configuration contributes to predictable handling, reduced effort, and consistent performance throughout prolonged sailing periods.

Installation & Application

Ideal for high-load control lines, cascades, and fine-tune systems, the Lewmar HTX Single Block with Fiddle, Becket and Swivel Head integrates seamlessly into modern performance cruising and racing yacht layouts. Its combination of power, adaptability, and compact efficiency makes it a professional-grade solution backed by Lewmar’s proven deck-hardware expertise.
