Snatch Block Swivel Hook 8T 8" (Lifting Pulley 8 Ton 8 Inch Lightweight)

Designed for towing, pulling and overhead lifting, these heavy duty Snatch Blocks are built for demanding recovery and winching set-ups, including off-road use. Each block is intended for use with wire rope and features a gate that lets you place the rope onto the sheave without threading it through the block, helping to speed up rigging when time matters.

Fitted with a bush sheave, these pulley blocks are not suitable for high-speed applications. They conform to BS EN 13157: 2004 + A1: 2009 and are made to a 4:1 factor of safety. Used correctly, they can help lessen the load on the winch during recoveries and off-road winching.
