Blocks & Sheaves

Blocks and sheaves are essential components in rigging and lifting operations, designed to facilitate the movement and control of heavy loads. A block consists of one or more sheaves (grooved wheels) encased in a frame, allowing ropes or cables to pass through and change direction with minimal friction. These assemblies are crucial in creating mechanical advantage systems, enabling the lifting of substantial weights with reduced effort. Common types include snatch blocks, swivel blocks, and fixed eye blocks, each suited for specific applications in industries such as construction, marine, oil and gas, and manufacturing. The selection of appropriate blocks and sheaves enhances operational efficiency and ensures safety in various lifting scenarios.
