Snatch Blocks - lightweight, with a 4:1 Factor of Safety.
A Snatch Block is a great aid to winching operations:
- By increasing load pulling capacity
- By facilitating a change of direction of the pull if required
- By improving life expectancy of the winch and rope through reducing the strain applied on them
Using one snatch block allows you to 'double the rope', which in turn doubles the lifting/pulling capacity of the snatch block and winch arrangement. If additional snatch blocks can be used in conjunction with the winch, it will further increase load pulling capacity.
To select the correct block for your needs refer to the Wire Rope diameter.
