McKissick 420 Champion Series Snatch Block - 15 Ton - 3/4 to 7/8 in Wire Rope - 8 in Sheave - Roller Bearing

Product Description

The McKissick 420 Champion Series Snatch Block is a heavy-duty wire rope snatch block engineered for demanding rigging, lifting, and load-redirecting applications. Built to handle the rigors of industrial, construction, and oilfield environments, the 420 Champion Series is part of McKissick's established line of snatch blocks, offering a robust design suited to high-capacity rigging operations in construction, heavy industry, marine, and oilfield applications.

This block is rated for a 15 ton load capacity and is designed to accommodate wire rope cable ranging from 3/4 in to 7/8 in in diameter. The 8 in outside diameter sheave is supported by a roller bearing, which reduces friction during operation, promotes smoother cable travel, and contributes to lower wear on both the wire rope and the sheave under sustained use. The overall dimensions of 8.34 in W x 23.5 in H reflect a tall, narrow profile characteristic of the 420 Champion Series design, and these dimensions should be carefully verified against available rigging clearances and hook or shackle attachment hardware prior to use. Compared to the bronze bushing bearing variant in the 420 Champion Series at the same load rating and cable range, this roller bearing configuration offers reduced friction and improved efficiency during operation.

The 420 Champion Series snatch block is well suited to applications requiring load redirection, mechanical advantage in rigging systems, or pulling operations where a high-capacity, roller-bearing-equipped block is required. Its design supports use in construction, heavy rigging, marine, oilfield, and industrial material handling environments where reliable performance at elevated load ratings is essential.

Note:

Material composition and finish details should be confirmed against the official McKissick 420 Champion Series product documentation or catalog prior to specification. The 3/4 to 7/8 in cable diameter range should be verified against the wire rope installed in the rigging system before use. All attachment hardware — hooks, shackles, and swivels — must be rated at or above the 15 ton load capacity of this block. The roller bearing design should be compared against the bronze bushing bearing variant in the 420 Champion Series when selecting based on bearing type requirements. The 23.5 in height should be verified against available rigging clearance before use. Do not assume certifications or standards compliance without verification from McKissick or an authorized distributor.
