We spoke to Ben Harden of Allen at METSTRADE 2023 to find out about the new products they have brought out.

These include:

  • 40mm High Load Blocks – the new 40mm dynamic block range launched at Boot Düsseldorf 2023 has already grown, and now includes a few High Load versions.

  • AY Fittings – machined horn cleats and fairleads. Yacht fittings used to be cast in the Allen foundry, but now new machined products are taking over from the discontinued items.
