The Master Pull SB55000-14 is a block like no other. It was designed to be both lightweight and small, yet extremely strong. Many conventional snatch blocks are heavy, large, and cumbersome. They take up unnecessary space in the vehicle and make rigging more difficult.
The SB55000-14 snatch block has a compact form, weighs only 5 lbs, yet has a breaking strength of 55,000 lbs! With a 2:1 safety factor this block offers a maximum load of 27,500 lbs.
Although this snatch block can be used with steel wire cable, it was specifically designed for use with synthetic winch lines. Shrink fitted nylon protector plates prevent synthetic rope from contacting any sharp, metal edges of the block and a stainless steel sheave provides a smooth contact surface for synthetic rope up to 9/16” (14 mm) diameter.
The stainless steel sheave rides on a maintenance free, Kevlar bearing, so no greasing is required with this block. For durability, the side plates are powder coated with a black hammered finish.
