McKissick 404 Light Champion Series Tail Board Snatch Block - 2 Ton - 5/16 to 3/8 in Wire Rope - 3 in Sheave

Product Description

The McKissick 404 Light Champion Series Tail Board Snatch Block is a wire rope rigging block designed for reliable performance in light to medium-duty industrial, construction, and field rigging applications. Rated at 2 tons, this compact block is well-suited for operations that require a portable, easy-to-handle snatch block for load redirecting, pulling, and rigging tasks where a smaller capacity unit is appropriate. The 404 Light Champion Series is part of McKissick's established line of snatch blocks, offering dependable construction and broad applicability across a wide range of rigging environments.

This block features a 3-inch sheave outside diameter and accommodates wire rope cable ranging from 5/16 to 3/8 inch in diameter. The sheave runs on a bronze bushing bearing, a proven bearing type that offers reliable load-bearing performance and resistance to shock loading in field conditions. Bronze bushings are well-suited to the slow, high-load movements typical of snatch block use and perform dependably in environments where regular maintenance access may be limited. The compact sheave size and small overall footprint make this block easy to deploy in confined spaces or on lighter rigging setups where a full-size block would be impractical.

The tail board design allows the block to be anchored to a fixed point while redirecting the line of pull from a winch or pulling system. This makes it effective across a variety of light rigging configurations on job sites, in maintenance environments, and in general industrial applications. As with all rigging hardware, proper inspection before each use, correct installation, and strict adherence to the rated working load are essential for safe operation.
