This heavy-duty 9" Rugged Ridge Snatch Block is made from 1/4" re-enforced steel and has a breaking strength of 30,000 lb. It is compatible with winch line up to 1/2" in diameter and winches rated up to 15,000 lb. A Snatch Block can really come in handy in a sticky situation! They allow you to double the line capacity of your winch, when things are not looking promising with just a single line pull. You can also use them to change direction of the winch line, when the recovery vehicle is not able to get a straight pulling angle to the vehicle needing to be recovered.
Note: Do not use synthetic rope on a pulley once you have run steel line through it, as it can cause mar up the pulley wheel and cause damage to synthetic rope.
WARNING
Because of the pulley's capability to increase your line pull rating, it is important to understand winching basics and know that improper setup can potentially lead to line failure and could cause serious bodily injury. Always use a line dampener when using wire rope and stand clear of the potential danger zone when using a winch with or without a pulley. Also, these pulley blocks are not designed for hoisting. Be sure to read and understand instructions before using any towing or recovery gear. Please give us a call if you have any questions or concerns!
