Richard,
Try soaking it immersed in white vinegar for a few days. After a day see if you can get the sheave to turn. Once it breaks free it will clean up fairly quickly. Same thing for the snap shackle end. It’s slow but it does work. Rick Taillieu Nemesis '75 C&C 25 #371 Shearwater Yacht Club Halifax, NS.

Greetings, INDIGO has a set of heavy-duty snatch blocks for the jib sheets. The bodies are solid black rummer and there is a trident stamp marking on the strap. One of the block's shieves is seized; looks like it'll need new pins and possibly a new sheive. Any ideas who may have made this block, are they still available, and where replacement parts may be obtained? Thank you, Richard _____ No virus found in this message.
