LGRIG® Trawl Blocks — Smoother Hauls, Greater Catches.
From wire rope reeving to heavy-load towing, QINGDAO LG RIGGING CO.,LTD delivers the LGRIG® range of trawl blocks and pulleys — engineered to reduce friction, minimize gear wear, and enhance overall fishing productivity.
Our comprehensive lineup includes wooden snatch blocks available in single sheave, double sheave, and triple sheave configurations, plus steel pulleys with electro-galvanized, hot-dip galvanized, or powder-coated finishes for superior corrosion protection.
Both styles feature a side plate (cheek plate) that opens for quick and easy cable insertion without removing the load or fittings — a process known as reeving.
Connection options include eye, hook, swivel hook, swivel eye, and shackle types, with some designs allowing for on-site assembly without additional attachment parts.
Whether you are redirecting winch pulls, doubling towing capacity, or optimizing trawl net deployment, LGRIG® trawl blocks and pulleys deliver the performance, durability, and safety that commercial fishermen and rigging professionals trust — in every sea, on every tow.
Most of the Pulley blocks for fishing and trawling are wooden snatch blocks, of which there are single sheaves, double sheaves and triple sheaves in terms of the number of sheaves. The other end of the snatch block is also available in various forms, including eye, hook, swivel hook, swivel eye, shackle, and a type of shackle that can be assembled later on without any attachment parts.
Of course, there is more than just wooden snatch blocks for fishing and trawling, there are also steel pulleys, which generally have Eye, hook and other attachment fittings and are finished with electro-galvanized, hot-dip galvanized, powder coated, etc. to protect the outside of the pulley from corrosion to a certain extent.
When used with a winch, there is a lot of force passing through the Snatch block and the pressure on the rope can be twice the actual load being towed. If the pressure is too high and the load is too high, the Snatch block can fail and subsequently fail, which can have a slingshot effect and cause significant damage. It is therefore essential that the equipment is set up correctly and that all components are connected safely. Of course, the anchor itself must also be very secure and safe.
It is important to follow safety procedures when using the Snatch block, which can be dangerous if used incorrectly.
