40mm Double Snatch Block - Snap Shackle

40mm Double (Back-to-Back) Snatch Blocks with Swivel

A snatch block is a type of pulley designed to redirect the path of a line or increase the purchase of a system. Unlike a standard block, it can be attached directly onto an existing line without the need to reeve (thread) the rope through the sheave, thanks to its opening side cheek design.

Snatch blocks are highly versatile and easy to use, making them a valuable addition to any toolkit. They allow you to quickly rig new systems without having to remove or re-thread lines.

Dynamic Bearings

Features twin rows of stainless-steel ball bearings running on a stainless-steel rail. This provides superior load-carrying capability and greater longevity compared to bearing systems that run on plastic rails.

Locking Mechanism (Keeper)

Both snatch blocks feature a spring-loaded metal slider that locks onto the central axle of the block. The mechanism can be released with one hand, allowing the side cheek to be opened quickly for installation onto a line.

Snap Shackle

This assembly features a high-load swivelling snap shackle for secure attachment and free rotation under load.
