McKissick 404 Light Champion Tail Board Snatch Block - 8 Ton - 5/8 to 3/4 in Wire Rope - 6 in Sheave

Description du produit

The McKissick 404 Light Champion Tail Board Snatch Block is a specialized rigging block designed for wire rope applications where a tail board attachment is required for securing or anchoring the block within a rigging system. Rated for an 8-ton working load limit and compatible with wire rope cable from 5/8 inch up to 3/4 inch in diameter, this block is well suited for crane, winch, marine, logging, construction, and general industrial operations where the tail board configuration provides a fixed attachment point or directional control advantage not available with a standard hook or shackle suspension.

The block features a bronze bushing bearing, delivering corrosion-resistant, dependable sheave rotation suited to marine, offshore, and field environments where exposure to moisture and contaminants is common. Bronze bushings provide long service life with minimal maintenance requirements, making them a practical choice for rigging equipment used in remote or high-cycle applications. The 6-inch OD sheave is appropriately sized for the rated wire rope diameter range, supporting bend radius ratios that help protect rope integrity over extended use.

The snatch block design allows the side plates to be opened for lateral rope insertion, enabling efficient rigging changes without threading the rope end through the block. The 404 Light Champion series is part of McKissick's line of mid-capacity rigging blocks, offering reliable performance for applications that do not require the higher load ratings of the Champion or Super Champion series. Always confirm wire rope diameter compatibility, tail board attachment point ratings, and full system configuration before placing the block into service.
