Allen A2068 — 60mm Dynamic Triple Block with Switchable Ratchet & Adjustable Cleat for Keelboats & Catamarans
The Allen A2068 60mm Dynamic Triple Block with Switchable Ratchet and Adjustable Cam Cleat is the most complete and versatile block in Allen's 60mm Dynamic range. Designed for keelboat and catamaran sailing, this triple block combines maximum mechanical advantage with integrated rope holding and ratchet functionality — covering the full spectrum of high-load rigging applications from jib sheet and mainsheet systems to backstay tensioning and everything in between. The A2068 is the all-in-one solution for sailors who demand total control, minimal friction and maximum adaptability from a single block.
Switchable Ratchet System — The integrated switchable ratchet allows the sailor to instantly engage or disengage the ratchet function depending on the conditions and load requirements. Engage the ratchet for light wind sailing where rope holding assistance is needed, or switch it off for free-running, frictionless rope travel in stronger conditions — giving you complete control over your purchase system at all times.
Adjustable Cam Cleat Arm — The A2068 features a fully adjustable cam cleat arm, allowing the cleat angle to be precisely tailored to your specific rigging setup and personal preference. Simply undo the bolt, slide the cam cleat along the track to the optimal position, and re-tighten into one of the dedicated location holes. This on-deck adjustability ensures the perfect lead angle for clean, reliable rope entry and release in any sailing condition.
Anti-Snag Elastic — A dedicated anti-snag elastic is fitted to prevent sheets and control lines from accidentally wrapping around the cam cleat arm — a critical safety and performance feature that keeps your rigging clean, tangle-free and ready to perform when it matters most on the race course.
Patented Bearing System — At the heart of the A2068 lies Allen's industry-leading twin-row stainless-steel ball bearing system, running on a stainless-steel rail. This patented design delivers exceptional load-carrying capacity and outstanding long-term durability, outperforming all conventional bearing systems currently available on the market — a decisive advantage when four sheaves are working simultaneously under maximum load in the most demanding racing conditions.
Removable Swivel Lock — The A2068 features a removable swivel lock moulding, offering two distinct modes of operation. When installed, the attachment shackle locks in precise 90-degree orientations for fixed-lead applications. When removed, the shackle spins freely for complete rotational versatility.
Removable Ringot — The ringot is fully removable, allowing complete customisation of your purchase system configuration — whether running a simple tackle, a cascade system or a complex multi-purchase arrangement.
The ultimate all-in-one control block — the Allen A2068 60mm Dynamic Triple Block with Switchable Ratchet and Adjustable Cleat is the definitive choice for keelboat and catamaran sailors who demand maximum performance, total versatility and complete control from a single piece of deck hardware.
