Western T-350-C Series Manila Rope Gin Block - 1,000 lb - 1 in Manila Rope - 12 in Sheave

Product Description

Product Description: The Western T-350-C Series 1000 lb Manila Rope Gin Block with 12 inch sheave is a traditional and dependable rigging block designed for use with manila rope cable up to 1 inch in diameter in construction, forestry, general rigging, and field lifting applications. Gin blocks are a long-established rigging tool used to redirect rope and provide mechanical advantage in lifting and pulling operations, and the T-350-C Series continues this proven design tradition with a robust construction suited to demanding outdoor and industrial environments. The block is rated to a 1000 lb working load limit and is well matched to light to medium rigging tasks where manila rope is the preferred or specified line material and an enlarged sheave diameter is required for improved rope life performance.

The 12 inch sheave outside diameter provides an exceptionally generous rope bend radius relative to the 1 inch manila rope diameter, substantially reducing rope wear and fiber fatigue during repeated use and contributing to significantly extended rope service life compared to smaller sheave configurations. The larger sheave diameter is particularly advantageous in high-cycle applications or where rope longevity is a priority, as the reduced bending stress on the rope fibers at each pass through the block helps preserve rope strength and integrity over a greater number of lifting cycles. The plain bore bearing offers a straightforward and durable bearing solution well suited to the operating demands of gin block applications, providing reliable sheave rotation under load without the complexity of sealed or lubricated bearing assemblies.

The T-350-C Series gin block in this 12 inch sheave configuration is designed for integration into general rigging, block and tackle, and rope-based lifting and pulling systems where a dependable light-capacity manila rope block with enhanced rope life performance is required. The block is compatible with standard rigging hardware including hooks and shackles rated to the appropriate working load limit. All connected rigging components must be rated to 1000 lb or greater, and the block must be inspected before each use in accordance with applicable lifting and rigging safety standards. Manila rope must be inspected for wear, fraying, and degradation before each use and replaced when signs of deterioration are present.
