Western Hoist S-23B Series Wood Block - 2,400 lb - 5/8 in Manila Rope - 3 in Sheave

Description du produit

Product Description: The Western Hoist S-23B Series Wood Block is a three-groove rigging block designed for manila rope and cable applications up to 5/8 inch in diameter. Built around a 3 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 S-23B delivers a working load capacity of 2,400 lb and a 5-inch block length. The three-groove sheave configuration allows this block to be used in compound tackle arrangements, enabling operators to run three rope parts through a single block to significantly increase pulling force and distribute load across multiple line segments. The bronze bushing bearing provides reliable, low-maintenance performance under sustained load conditions.

The S-23B is part of Western Hoist's 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 mechanical advantage for medium-to-heavy rigging operations. The 2,400 lb capacity and 5-inch shell make the S-23B a capable choice for demanding multi-part line rigging tasks in both field and shop settings.
