SBL SNATCH BLOCK THE ULTIMATE BLOCKS IN POWER TO WEIGHT EFFICIENCY The SBL (strong but light) Snatch Blocks are designed for maximum strength at the lightest weight. The largest SBL is under 500 mm (20 in) in overall length, yet it weighs just 22.5 kg (50 lbs) and has a break load of 95 tons–a greater than 25% weight savings over comparable products. This allows it to be manually handled by a single operator. Sculpted to remove excess weight, the blocks maintain their high strength-to-weight efficiency. Sideopening plates allow the blocks to be rigged quickly and easily. 6061-T6 aluminum side plates with UV-stabilized hardcoat-anodizing for maximum protection. Sheaves run smoothly and maintain efficiency at high loads using PTFE-impregnated ULC bearing technology. Fiber Rope The Snatch Block is used with fiber rope up to 25 mm (1 in) in diameter, reducing weight and allowing alignment to the load. Smooth surfaces and chafe-free design are sympathetic to fiber rope. The Harken SBL Snatch Blocks are certified in excess of requirements of EN13157:2004 for Hand Operated Lifting Equipment. the game changer in load handling
