Designed for towing, pulling and overhead lifting, these heavy duty Snatch Blocks are suited to demanding tasks such as off-road winching and recovery. Each block is intended for use with wire rope and features a gate that allows the rope to be placed onto the sheave without threading it through the block, helping to speed up set-up when conditions are tight.
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 have a factor of safety of 4:1.
