Product Description

Product Description: The Western Hoist HS-21B Series Wood Block is a traditional single-groove rigging block designed for use with manila rope and cable applications up to 3/4 inch in diameter. Built around a 3-1/2 inch outside diameter sheave with a bronze bushing bearing, this block delivers smooth, low-friction rope travel suited to a wide range of lifting, pulling, and load-redirecting tasks in marine, logging, agricultural, and general industrial environments.

Constructed with a hardwood shell that provides durability and resistance to impact, the HS-21B features a 6-inch block length and a working load capacity of 1,800 lb. The single-groove sheave is sized specifically for manila rope and compatible cable up to 3/4 inch, ensuring proper rope seating and reducing wear during operation. Bronze bushing bearings provide reliable performance under load without requiring complex maintenance.

The HS-21B is part of Western Hoist's established line of wood shell blocks, which are widely used in applications where traditional rigging hardware is preferred or required. These blocks are commonly used in conjunction with tackle systems to multiply mechanical advantage for lifting and hauling operations. The 6-inch shell size and 1,800 lb capacity make this block suitable for medium-duty rigging tasks across a variety of field and shop settings.
