Rigging Blocks
At approximately half the size of the standard small rigging block and weighing in at only 490g (1 lb.), the new compact rigging block offers a highly impressive strength to weight ratio, with an 85kN (19,000 lbs.) MBS and WLL of 17kN (3800 lbs).
The pulley plates are made from hot forged aluminum and it is this manufacturing process which allows such a compact pulley to boast such great strength and dynamic load bearing capacity.
The pulley is fitted with a spring-lock closure mechanism which allows direct connection to rigging slings. This mini-block is designed for 1/2" (13mm) rope and the top sheave will accept 5/8" rope which can be used to attach a falsecrotch lanyard or whoopie sling.
FEATURES:
• Single progress capture pulley
& bull; Compatible with 10 - 13 mm rope
• Bushed, standard free running wheel
• Meets CE EN 12278, EN567, NFPA 1983.
This pulley features a new lightweight center plate, re-positioned wheel to reduce rope friction and a rated becket, through which most carabiners can be fully rotated. The RP703 is fitted with tamper-proof rivets and is individually serial numbered.
Works exceptionally well with the Portable Winch.
The Notch Rook Pulley from Rock Exotica provides the functionality of a pulley with a rigplate. The swivel top offers three connection points lined with rubber o-rings to grip carabiners tightly. These connection points were specifically designed for the rock-O carabiner to avoid dangerous cross-loading.
The most simple use of the pulley is on the rope bridge of the saddle, but it can be used in a variety of advanced ways. The Hydra can be used in ascent systems, lanyard systems, fliplines, or as a redirect. In any configuration, the use of the ROOK is greatly enhanced by the flexibility to add multiple connections and rotate when needed.
The most simple use of the HYDRA pulley is on the rope bridge of the saddle, but it can be used in a variety of advanced ways. The Hydra can be used in ascent systems, lanyard systems, fliplines, or as a redirect. In any configuration, the use of the HYDRA is greatly enhanced by the flexibility to add multiple connections and rotate when needed.
The unique design of the Omni 2.0 Double with a swivel top is equivalent to three pieces of hardware: the pulley, the swivel and the carabiner to connect them. The result is one compact tool that costs less than the three pieces of hardware it replaces.
• Install and remove rope while still connected to the anchor.
• Sideplate locks with two-stage, double-catch safety mechanism.
• Integrated swivel allows pulley to orient while reducing gain.
• Connect, install and remove rope with one hand.
• CNC machined for optimal weight & strength.
Minimum Breaking Strength: 40kN (9,360 lbs)
Working Load Limit: 10kN (2,240 lbs)
Weight: 21 oz (521gms)
Maximum Rope Size: 1/2” (13 mm)
These are the “original” Russ Anderson/SMC pulleys that are legendary throughout the fire, rescue and work-related professions. The most widely used pulleys of their kind, SMC/RA pulleys are well-known for delivering the highest levels of performance, quality and durability as demanded by rescue and industry professionals alike.
Oilite (sintered bronze) bearings are popular for delivering reliable performance at a reduced cost. Sealed ball bearings provide optimal efficiency and reduce the performance robbing resistance that is inherent in most multiple component systems. In addition, sealed ball bearings are not prone to failure under misaligned loads or with twisted gear as can be the case with needle bearings. The axle-nuts are double locked to the steel axle and then marked with a witness line in order to help detect any loosening. The attachment hole is sized to accept large rescue carabiners with sufficient room for the carabiner to rotate freely and easily.
