FAQs

Can I use this for hoisting people or heavy cargo?

No. This product is strictly for pulling and guidance and is not rated for overhead lifting.

Is the stainless steel suitable for permanent saltwater submersion?

Yes, 316-grade stainless steel is highly resistant to marine corrosion, though regular rinsing is recommended to prevent surface staining.

What is the breaking load of this snatch block?

The breaking load is rated at 2800KG.

How do I insert the rope into the block?

Use the swivel eye gate to open the side of the block, place your rope over the sheave, and close the gate securely.

Does the snatch block come with mounting hardware?

No, mounting hardware such as shackles or bolts are not included and should be selected based on your specific mounting requirement.

Troubleshooting

Swivel mechanism feels stiff or gritty

Clean the swivel housing with fresh water to remove salt or grit, then apply a small amount of marine-grade lubricant.

Rope is fraying rapidly

Check that the wire rope diameter is compatible with the 75mm sheave and inspect the sheave for any burrs or deep scratches.

Gate is difficult to open

Ensure there is no tension on the rope before attempting to open the swivel eye gate; confirm the gate hinge is clear of debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior corrosion resistance due to 316 stainless steel construction
  • Swivel eye design allows for flexible positioning and easy rope access
  • Sturdy 2800KG breaking load for high-demand pulling tasks
  • High-quality aesthetic finish suitable for visible marine rigging

Cons

  • Not certified for overhead lifting or human-rated safety applications
  • Requires periodic lubrication of the swivel mechanism for optimal performance
  • Limited to wire rope configurations suited for a 75mm sheave

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the block, open the swivel eye gate, insert your rope into the sheave, and ensure the locking mechanism is fully secured before applying tension. Always verify that your line is correctly seated within the sheave channel. For compatibility, this block is specifically engineered for wire rope applications; ensure your wire rope diameter does not exceed the capacity of the 75mm sheave. Care for this product by rinsing with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to maintain the integrity of the 316-grade steel. Periodically inspect the swivel eye for debris and apply a light marine-grade grease if movement becomes stiff.
