Description

The world's best ratchet block, offering a staggering 14:1 holding power which allows for more precise control, less fatigue and superior rope wearing performance. High quality, Australian made, this ratchet block boasts the highest strength to weight ratio available and features smooth running performance with low friction. Precision design enables the elimination of ineffective mass and the use of reinforced polymer materials to replace metal wherever possible. The Generation 2 hard anodised alloy sheave has 12 gripping faces to better distribute the loads and reduce rope wear and it spins on compression resistant carbon black acetal bearings. The Stage 2 bearing is glass-fibre reinforced, MoS2 impregnated nylon. Another unique feature is on many of the blocks the user can select the ratchet to either manual or auto mode depending on the application. The frame and cheeks are moulded from toughened glass-fibre reinforced nylon. These low profile blocks are available in a variety of styles with the Dyneema® rope link head extending the configurations.
