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

Product Description

The McKissick 419 Light Champion Snatch Block is a heavy-duty single-sheave block designed for wire rope cable applications requiring reliable load redirection and mechanical advantage in demanding industrial, construction, marine, and oilfield environments. Rated for a 15-ton working load limit, this block is built around a 16-inch outside diameter sheave supported by a roller bearing, delivering smooth, low-friction rope travel under load and reducing wear on both the rope and the block during extended use. The 419 series accommodates wire rope cable up to 7/8 inch in diameter.

The 16-inch sheave diameter provides a generous rope bend radius that reduces wire rope fatigue and extends rope service life across repeated loading cycles, making this block well suited for applications where both high load capacity and rope longevity are priorities. The roller bearing sheave minimizes friction and heat buildup during operation, supporting dependable performance in high-cycle and sustained-load environments. The snatch block configuration features a side-opening cheek plate that allows the wire rope to be inserted without threading the rope end through the block, reducing rigging time and improving setup efficiency in the field.

The Light Champion designation reflects McKissick's design approach of balancing structural strength with manageable block weight, making the 419 easier to handle and position during rigging operations without sacrificing the load capacity required for medium to heavy industrial tasks. This block is well suited for use with wire rope winches, cranes, hoists, and rigging systems in construction, marine, oilfield, logging, and general heavy industrial load-handling applications where a generous sheave diameter and roller bearing performance are both required.
