The McKissick Series 416 Snatch Block is a heavy-duty single-sheave block designed for reliable performance in demanding rigging, pulling, and load-redirection applications across construction, oilfield, marine, and industrial environments. Rated to a 12-ton working load capacity and compatible with wire rope diameters from 3/4 to 7/8 inch, the Series 416 provides the structural strength required for sustained use under significant working loads. The 6-inch sheave outside diameter offers a compact profile suited to applications where space or weight constraints are a consideration, while still delivering the load-handling capability required for 12-ton rigging operations.
Equipped with a roller bearing assembly, the Series 416 minimizes friction between the wire rope and sheave during operation, reducing wear on both the rope and the block and extending overall service life compared to plain bearing designs. The snatch block configuration features a side-opening cheek plate, allowing the block to be attached to or removed from a wire rope at any point along its length without threading the line — an important operational advantage in field rigging setups where efficiency and accessibility are priorities.
McKissick has a long-established reputation in the block and sheave industry for precision manufacturing and load-rated performance. The Series 416 is well suited for use with winches, cranes, and pulling equipment where wire rope direction changes or mechanical advantage are required. All shackles, hooks, and attachment hardware used in conjunction with this block should be rated to match or exceed the 12-ton working load limit to maintain a safe and compliant rigging assembly.
