A snatch block should be one of the most carefully assessed pieces of
equipment you buy. A poorly designed block can have a detrimental
effect on a winch's cable, and lead to a failure of the wire rope or the
snatch block itself.
ARB snatch blocks feature side plates that sit snug against the
pulley, eliminating the possibility of the winch cable becoming trapped
between the pulley and the side plates. The groove on the pulley itself
tapers down to the center allowing for a variety of cable sizes
(1/4"-1/2") to be used and ensures the cable is seated securely in the
pulley, minimizing lateral movement. To ensure smooth pulley operation,
the hardened steel pin is fitted with a nipple, to which grease can be
periodically applied.
The ARB snatch block is a formidable piece of recovery equipment that should be included in every recovery kit.
