    Abstract: A device is presented that can be used as both a pad eye and as a fairlead independently and simultaneously while providing separation between the two modes of use. The device provides the option for multiple attachment points and multiple fairlead passages and reduces the need of requiring both a pad eye and additional hardware such as a pulley in applications such as the implementing of a jib sheet “in-hauler” system on a sailing vessel. Additionally, the device is configured in a symmetric manner so as to allow the device to be optionally joined and mated to a second but inverted such device allowing for the assembly of two such devices into a single combined unit. Such a combined configuration has the benefit of allowing for pad eye and fairlead functions to take place in a suspended location instead of being constrained to only a fixed surface.
