Pro-source PSHL-007 Snatch Block 17600 Lbs 6 Inch Wire Rope

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE PSHL-007 is a heavy-duty side release snatch block rated for a 17,600-pound load limit. Designed for single-sheave wire rope rigging applications, it accepts 5/8-inch diameter wire rope and features a 6-inch outside diameter sheave. The side release design allows the block to be opened and threaded onto a rope midline without feeding the rope end through, which speeds rigging setup in the field. At 26.4 pounds, this is a substantial block built for demanding lifting and pulling operations. It is constructed of steel for durability under high-tension loads. This block is intended for use by riggers, millwrights, crane operators, and other trades working with wire rope rigging systems.

The PSHL-007 is suited for industrial rigging, construction hoisting, and heavy equipment moving where wire rope is the preferred line type. The single-sheave configuration redirects a single wire rope run and is commonly used to change the direction of pull or to increase mechanical advantage when paired with additional rigging hardware. The side release feature is particularly useful in confined spaces or overhead rigging scenarios where threading a rope end is impractical.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 5/8-inch diameter wire rope in single-sheave rigging systems. Consult applicable load charts and rigging standards before use to confirm suitability for your specific application.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified rigger familiar with wire rope rigging practices and applicable ASME B30 or OSHA rigging standards. Inspect the block, shackle, and wire rope for wear or damage before each use. Never exceed the rated load limit, and ensure all connecting hardware is properly rated and secured before applying load. De-rig and de-tension the system completely before opening the side release mechanism.
