Are these the control line blocks in the form of a cassette which are let into the knee under the thwart? If the answer is 'yes' then you can rebuild the cassette buy purchasing the individual ball bearing sheaves to replace the tired ones (well they are over 20 years old!)
Hope this helps

Holts do a single sheave with a bolt through it. Nuy a few take the bolts out and you have the sheaves. Won't be cheap though!

Tim will probably post on here if it freezes over the week as he only lives up the road. There's a lot of water to freeze though! I think Pete Male said it was 3 degrees (the water) on sunday.

James, allen's do the sheaves not Holt (any more) there are several different sizes and configurations both in ball versions and plain versions.
Give me a call if you need any help. I stock some of them...
