INSTRUCTIONS & CAUTIONS
Ensure Proper Attachment
When using the Oval Eye Single Sheave Snatch Block, always ensure the eye is securely attached to a reliable rigging point. The oval eye design is made for quick attachment, but check that it’s firmly fixed to avoid any slippage during operation. A loose connection can lead to unsafe conditions and equipment failure.
Verify Load Capacity
Before using the snatch block, check the working load limit (WLL) to ensure it matches or exceeds the load you plan to lift. This block is designed to handle heavy loads, but exceeding the WLL could lead to damage or failure. Always adhere to the WLL and account for dynamic loads, especially in heavy-duty or high-tension environments.
Regular Lubrication and Maintenance
Keep the sheave and eye fitting properly lubricated to ensure smooth operation. Use the appropriate grease or oil to reduce friction and wear. Regular maintenance will extend the life of the block and ensure reliable performance. Inspect the block periodically for wear and tear, especially after heavy use or exposure to harsh conditions like saltwater.
Avoid Overloading and Improper Use
Never overload the single sheave snatch block. Always ensure that it’s used within its specified limits. Overloading can lead to deformation, reduced lifespan, or complete failure. Similarly, avoid using the block in unsuitable conditions, like extreme temperatures or environments with abrasive materials that could damage the sheave or bearings.

OUR REVIEWS
FAQ
What’s the difference between a single sheave and double sheave snatch block?
A single sheave snatch block is ideal for basic lifting applications, providing one sheave for guiding the rope or cable. A double sheave block is better for higher efficiency and reducing friction in applications where two ropes are used. Choose a single sheave snatch block when simplicity is key, and a double sheave when you need more load handling capacity.
How do I properly install a single sheave snatch block?
To install a single sheave snatch block, securely attach the oval eye to a suitable rigging point like a crane or a fixed post. Ensure the block is aligned with the direction of the load to prevent unnecessary wear and ensure smooth operation. Always check that the snatch pin is inserted correctly and that the sheave moves freely.
What are the key benefits of a snatch block over a regular pulley?
The single sheave snatch block offers flexibility because of its ability to be easily attached or removed from a rope system without disconnecting the entire rig. It also provides a mechanical advantage, reducing the amount of force needed to move heavy loads. Unlike regular pulleys, snatch blocks can handle dynamic loads and allow for quick adjustments.
Can I use a snatch block for non-wire rope applications?
Yes, a single sheave snatch block can be used with non-wire rope applications such as synthetic rope or nylon cables. However, it’s essential to choose the right block based on the rope material and its diameter to ensure the sheave can accommodate it. We offer different sizes and options tailored to various rope types and applications.
What is the maximum load capacity of your snatch blocks?
Our single sheave snatch blocks are designed to handle up to 4 times the working load limit (WLL). For example, if the WLL is 1,000 kg, the ultimate load capacity is 4,000 kg. This makes our blocks safe for handling heavy and dynamic loads in construction, lifting, and marine applications. We also offer customized snatch blocks to meet specific load needs.
