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

Description du produit

The McKissick 404 Light Champion Series Tail Board Snatch Block is a versatile and rugged wire rope block designed for tail board and general rigging applications where portability, strength, and reliable performance are required. McKissick's Light Champion Series has a long-standing reputation in the rigging industry for delivering dependable blocks suited to a wide range of field and industrial uses. The tail board configuration makes this block particularly well suited for logging, construction, utility work, and other applications where a snatch block must be anchored at a fixed point while redirecting or multiplying pulling force.

This block is rated for an 8 ton capacity and accommodates wire rope cable ranging from 5/8 in to 3/4 in maximum diameter, providing flexibility across common wire rope sizes used in heavy rigging and pulling operations. The 8 in sheave outside diameter is larger than the roller bearing variant in the same series, providing an improved wire rope bending ratio that contributes to extended cable service life during repetitive use. The bronze bushing bearing construction offers a durable and low-maintenance bearing solution well suited to the heavy loads and field conditions typical of tail board snatch block applications.

The snatch block design allows wire rope to be inserted laterally without threading the rope end through the block, making it practical for field rigging setups where speed and ease of rigging changes are important. The tail board attachment point provides a secure anchoring method suited to vehicle-mounted, structure-mounted, or ground anchor rigging configurations. This block is appropriate for use in logging operations, heavy equipment recovery, construction rigging, utility line work, and similar demanding field applications.
