EH Snatch Block

The EH Snatch Block incorporates advanced swivel hook technology to ensure optimal pulley positioning relative to the cable direction throughout lifting operations. The single sheave snatch blocks of the EH's range are mainly used for temporary applications for pulling and lifting, when quick assemblies and/or dismantling are required. Thanks to an easy instalment and availability of a becket, these snatch blocks are most often used for blocks assemblies or wire rope direction changes.

Advanced engineering features include steel crosshead with self-locking trunnions to prevent opening under load, whilst the quarter-turn opening mechanism enables wire rope introduction whilst the block remains suspended. EH's snatch blocks are fitted with a swivel hook which ensure good positioning of the pulley regarding the cable. The locking axle is secured by a safety pin, which prevents from any unscrewing or uncontrolled movement.

The EH series excels in industrial maintenance, construction operations, and marine applications where precise load positioning and regulatory compliance are essential. Some EH pulleys are compatible with standard tirfor^® and tirak^® wire rope cable, and some are also in conformity with the main requirements of EN 13157 Standard. Working load limits range from 1 tonne to 8 tonnes with comprehensive bearing options including bronze bush and roller bearing configurations.
