Value Collection 102098 Side Release Tail Board Block

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 102098 is a side release tail board block designed for wire rope rigging applications where controlled load handling and easy rope release are required. This single-sheave block carries a load limit of 17,600 pounds and accepts wire rope in 5/8 inch and 3/4 inch diameters. The sheave measures 6 inches in outside diameter. Constructed from steel with a painted finish, this block is built for demanding lift and pull operations on job sites, docks, and industrial settings. Rigging professionals and millwrights are the primary installers.

This tail board block is suited for use in wire rope rigging systems that require a termination point or direction change at the load end. The side release design allows the rope to be inserted or removed from the block without threading, reducing setup time in repetitive or temporary rigging configurations. Typical applications include construction hoisting, marine deck rigging, and industrial material handling where wire rope in the 5/8 inch to 3/4 inch range is specified.

Installation Notes

Rigging hardware of this type should be installed by a qualified rigger or millwright familiar with applicable ASME B30 standards for below-the-hook lifting devices. Always inspect the block, rope, and all connected hardware before each use and de-rate the assembly if any wear, deformation, or corrosion is found. Never exceed the rated load limit and ensure all shackles, hooks, and attachment points are properly secured and moused where required.
