Claimed features of the snatch blocks include a moveable side plate, which allows rope insertion while hanging with “no need to disconnect and re-connect wire rope,” says the company.
It adds: “Blocks have forged alloy heated hooks, assuring they will not break, but will straighten out before failure. Every block has a swivel pin stop that stays in place while reeving so there is no loss of pins. And the snatch block’s safety latch prevents disconnection from the anchor point, and provides a visual sign of overload.”
