INSTRUCTIONS & CAUTIONS
Proper Installation
Ensure that the snatch block is securely attached to your rigging system. Attach the eye to a fixed point using a hook or shackle. Before using, double-check that everything is fastened tightly to avoid slippage or accidents during operation.
Check Rope Compatibility
When using the snatch block, make sure the rope or cable fits correctly in the single sheave. The rope should move smoothly without binding or friction. If the rope is too thick or too thin for the block, it can lead to inefficient operation or even damage the sheave.
Adhere to Load Limits
Always follow the specified working load limits and test load ratings. This snatch block is designed for high-capacity work, but overloading it can cause failure. Make sure you’re lifting within the safe limits to maintain equipment integrity and worker safety.
Regular Maintenance
Keep the snatch block in good condition by performing regular inspections. Look for signs of wear, corrosion, or any damage to the sheave, hook, or eye. Lubricate the moving parts regularly to ensure smooth operation. If you notice any issues, replace the parts before using the block again.

OUR REVIEWS
FAQ
How does the side opening link work on this snatch block?
The side opening link on our snatch block makes rope or cable insertion quick and easy, without the need to thread it through the block. This feature speeds up setup time and allows for efficient rigging during high-demand tasks. It’s especially useful in time-sensitive situations, as it helps minimize delays when setting up or swapping out ropes.
Can I use this snatch block with synthetic ropes?
Yes, this single pulley snatch block with eye can be used with synthetic ropes, as well as steel cables. It’s important to ensure that the rope diameter matches the sheave size to prevent damage. Synthetic ropes are often used for their lightweight nature and flexibility, and this block is designed to accommodate both rope types efficiently.
What sizes are available for this snatch block?
Our single pulley snatch block with eye comes in various sizes to accommodate different rope diameters and lifting capacities. We can also offer custom sizes based on your specific needs. For larger projects, consider ordering multiple sizes to ensure you have the right snatch block for each task.
How does the eye design benefit my rigging setup?
The eye design allows for easy attachment to a hook, shackle, or other rigging equipment. This adds flexibility to your setup, enabling quick changes when needed. It ensures secure attachment during operations, helping to prevent any unwanted slippage or instability during heavy lifting tasks.
Can I use this snatch block with an electric winch?
Yes, you can use this snatch block with an electric winch. It works seamlessly with winch systems to redirect the rope or cable and improve the lifting or pulling efficiency. Ensure that the winch and snatch block are compatible in terms of load capacity to avoid overloading either component.
How do I calculate the right snatch block for my project?
-
Calculate the Load: Determine the weight of the load you will be lifting.
-
Check Working Load Limit (WLL): Ensure the snatch block’s WLL meets or exceeds the load weight.
-
Consider Rope Diameter: Make sure the rope diameter fits correctly into the sheave for smooth operation.
-
