The stainless steel swing side snatch block features a lightweight 76 mm diameter deep groove aluminum sheave, with stainless steel plates that swing open to install rope. Sintered bronze bushing on stainless steel shaft provides 98% efficiency.
Useful for use when doubling the line, the rope cannot accidentally come out of the block. Also very useful to redirect a load or to pull upward in a hill. Use the steel locking carabiners to anchor to a polyester sling. Smaller and lighter than the PCA-1274 pulley.
Ideal rope diameter: 10 mm.
Working Load Limit: 16 kN (1632 kg)
