Allen Brothers Snatch Block with Additional Small Sheave

A snatch block is a type of pulley commonly used to redirect the path of a line or increase the purchase system. It’s designed to be easily attached to a line without having to reeve (thread) the line through the pulley. This is achieved with the opening side cheeks.

Snatch blocks are super versatile and easy to use. Making them a great addition to the tool kit so you can quickly and easily rig up a new system without having to re-thread lines.

Dynamic Bearings – Twin rows of stainless-steel ball bearings running on a stainless-steel rail. This provides a superior load-carrying ability and longevity when compared to other bearing systems which run on a plastic rail.

Locking Mechanism (keeper) – The spring-loaded metal slider locks onto the central axle of the block. It can be unlocked with one hand, allowing you to open the side cheek and install onto a line.

Small Sheave – This snatch block features an additional sheave around the top cheek pivot axle which can be utilised to create a 2:1 purchase system.
