Western Hoist HS-23B Series Wood Block - 3,200 lb - 3/4 in Manila Rope - 6 in Sheave

Description du produit

Product Description: The Western Hoist HS-23B Series Wood Block is a three-groove rigging block designed for manila rope and cable applications up to 3/4 inch in diameter. Built around a 3-1/2 inch outside diameter sheave with a bronze bushing bearing, this block is engineered for use in multi-part tackle systems where increased mechanical advantage is required for heavier lifting, pulling, and load-redirection tasks in marine, logging, agricultural, and general industrial environments.

Constructed with a hardwood shell, the HS-23B delivers a working load capacity of 3,200 lb and a 6-inch block length. The three-groove sheave configuration allows this block to be used in compound tackle arrangements, enabling operators to distribute load across multiple rope parts and achieve greater mechanical advantage than single- or double-groove blocks. Bronze bushing bearings provide reliable, low-maintenance performance under sustained load conditions.

The HS-23B is part of Western Hoist's established wood shell block line, suited for applications where traditional rigging hardware is preferred or required. These blocks are commonly paired with complementary single- or double-groove blocks in block-and-fall systems to multiply pulling force for medium-to-heavy rigging operations. The 3,200 lb capacity and 6-inch shell make the HS-23B a practical choice for demanding field and shop rigging tasks requiring multi-part line configurations.
