McKissick 419 Light Champion Snatch Block - Wire Rope - 7/8 in - 15 Ton - 16 in

Product Description

The McKissick 419 Light Champion Snatch Block is a heavy-duty snatch block engineered for demanding rigging and load redirection applications requiring a 15 Ton working load capacity. Accommodating wire rope up to 7/8 inch in diameter, this block features a 16-inch outside diameter sheave that provides a generous rope bend radius, reducing wire rope fatigue and extending rope service life under the sustained loads associated with 7/8-inch wire rope rigging operations at elevated working loads. The Light Champion series reflects McKissick's commitment to producing field-proven, dependable snatch blocks that deliver consistent performance across a wide range of industrial, construction, oilfield, and marine rigging applications.

The 419 is fitted with bronze bushing bearings, a time-tested bearing type that offers reliable performance under the combined radial and axial loads encountered during load line redirection. Bronze bushings provide inherent corrosion resistance and natural lubricity, making them well suited for marine, coastal, and general outdoor rigging environments where exposure to moisture and the elements is a regular factor. This bearing type supports straightforward field maintenance and is compatible with standard lubrication practices, reducing downtime and simplifying upkeep in field conditions where access to specialized maintenance equipment may be limited.

As a snatch block, the McKissick 419 Light Champion features an openable side plate that allows wire rope to be inserted laterally without threading the rope end through the block, enabling fast and efficient rigging changes and load line redirection in the field. The 16-inch sheave diameter provides an extended rope contact surface well suited to 7/8-inch wire rope at 15 Ton working loads, contributing to reduced rope wear and improved fleet angle performance in demanding rigging configurations. This block is appropriate for crane and hoist rigging, heavy construction site load handling, oilfield service and workover operations, offshore platform rigging, marine deck rigging, and multi-part line applications. Always verify working load limits, wire rope diameter compatibility, and attachment hardware prior to placing the block into service.
