This SecureFix Direct Snatch Block is designed for professionals and serious DIYers involved in lifting, pulling, towing, and redirecting loads up to 2 tonnes. Its key benefit is the swivel safety hook and gate mechanism, allowing for easy wire rope attachment without threading. A caveat is its suitability for low-speed applications due to the bush sheave.

The maximum head load capacity for this snatch block is 2 Tonnes (2000 kg).
This snatch block is designed to suit wire rope diameters between 7mm and 9mm.
The block is fitted with a bush sheave, which is designed for lower-speed operations and can overheat or wear prematurely under high-speed conditions.
Open the gate, place the wire rope in the sheave groove, and close the gate securely. The swivel hook can then be attached to your anchor point.
A Factor of Safety of 4:1 means the block's ultimate breaking strength is at least four times its rated working load limit (2 Tonnes in this case).
Yes, a test certificate is included and will be sent to you via email.
The overall height is 292mm, side width is 70mm, and front width is 82mm.
Check for debris lodged in the sheave or mounting. Clean thoroughly. If the issue persists, the bush may need replacement or professional inspection.
Clean the gate and its pivot point. Ensure no obstructions are preventing it from closing. Inspect for any bends or damage to the gate mechanism.
Clean the swivel point and check for any foreign material. Lubrication may be necessary if it's excessively stiff, but ensure the lubricant is compatible with lifting equipment.
Do not use the snatch block. Tag it as 'Do Not Use' and arrange for professional inspection or replacement.
