Equiplite Snatchblock
Equiplite™ Snatch Blocks use DSK 75 ULTRA loops to take the loads directly through the centre of the sheave. This allows the blocks to be extremely light (75% less than competitive assemblies of the same load).
Correct fair lead, compact, less windage, quick and easy to operate, compared to competitive blocks, of the same load. Even with cold & wet hands.
Available in lowload (LL) and highload (HL) version
High -strength material — low friction, impact resistant
The snatch blocks use moulded carbon composite side plates, with high-tensile Hardkote-anodized aluminium sheaves for high load types. The bearing utilise advanced high load low friction polymer bearing technology, giving unparalled loaded bearing efficiency of at least 92% for HL and 94% for VHL...(with dry operation, without need for lubrication).
Snatch blocks have unmatched impact and wear resistance.
