Inner World: Head Stoppers

Different manufacturers, for example Antal, Lewmar, Easylock, Spinlock or Rutgerson, use different methods to fix the tackle. In some models, it is compressed by V-shaped, serrated clamps, in others, perforated plates located one after the other are used, which skew relative to each other and thus clamp the tackle. In the variant below, the halyard is secured with slightly rounded toothed ridges.
