McKissick Bar Steel Sheave - 1/8 in x 4 in - Roller Bearing

Product Description

The McKissick Bar Steel Sheave with roller bearing is a compact, light-duty wire rope sheave designed for applications involving small-diameter wire rope where smooth, low-friction rotation and solid bar steel construction are required within a minimal assembly envelope. Bar steel construction provides reliable industrial-grade strength and durability appropriate for light-duty lifting, rigging, and utility applications operating within the sheave's rated capacity. This sheave is suitable for use in small block assemblies, light rigging systems, and maintenance or utility hoisting applications where 1/8 in wire rope is specified.

This sheave accommodates wire rope up to 1/8 in maximum cable diameter and features a 4 in outside diameter, providing a high sheave-to-rope diameter ratio for this rope size that helps minimize wire rope fatigue and extend rope service life even in light-duty service conditions. The roller bearing configuration delivers low-friction, high-efficiency rotation, making it well suited to applications where smooth operation, reduced wear, and minimal maintenance are priorities even at smaller sheave sizes. Roller bearings provide reliable radial load capacity with low energy loss, and are a practical specification in small sheave assemblies where performance and longevity are valued over the simplicity of a bushing-type bearing.

McKissick is a recognized manufacturer of sheaves, blocks, and rigging hardware for the oil and gas, construction, marine, and industrial sectors. This sheave is intended for use as a replacement or component part within compatible McKissick block assemblies and rigging systems. All installations should comply with applicable load ratings, rigging standards, and inspection requirements to ensure safe and reliable operation throughout the service life of the assembly.
