Pro-source PSHL-006 Side Release Snatch Block 8800 Lbs

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE PSHL-006 is a side release snatch block designed for wire rope rigging applications. It features a single sheave with a 4.5-inch outside diameter and accepts 0.375-inch diameter wire rope. With an 8,800-pound load limit, this block is built for heavy-duty lifting, pulling, and load-redirecting tasks. The steel construction provides durability under sustained working loads. It is installed and used by riggers, millwrights, construction crews, and industrial maintenance technicians who require reliable wire rope hardware for material handling and equipment positioning.

This snatch block is suited for use in industrial, construction, and rigging environments where wire rope systems are employed to redirect pulling force or gain mechanical advantage. The side release design allows the rope to be inserted or removed without threading the end, which speeds up rigging changes and reduces setup time on the job. It is appropriate for both horizontal and vertical load applications within its rated capacity.

Installation Notes

This snatch block should be installed by qualified riggers or personnel trained in wire rope hardware and rigging practices. Always verify that the anchor point, shackle, and all hardware in the rigging assembly are rated at or above the working load of the block before applying tension. Never exceed the stated load limit, and inspect the sheave, side plates, and fasteners for wear or damage before each use. Follow all applicable ASME B30 rigging standards and site safety requirements.
