Light Champion Snatch Block With Hook #418 is for hoisting, lifting, pulling, or dragging.
It is often uses on truck cranes and winches, and in the logging, mining, and construction industries.
The top pin of the Snatch Block connects to Lifting Slings, Chain, Head Rings, Shackles, and other Rigging Hardware.
A single line sheave can be used to change the direction of the pull to a favorable direction, while increasing the load on the block significantly compared to the lead line.
When suspended, the theoretical mechanical advantage increases to equal the number of lines going to the Snatch Tailboard Block.
This snatch block is made from forged steel with an alloy, heat-treated hook (latch kits are optional). Available in a variety of sizes with either bronze bushings or roller bearings, and easily reeved. Each block is fatigue rated prior to shipment.
