A snatch block is a heavy-duty pulley inside a metal casing. It is primarily designed for handling heavy goods, working as a pulley point that can redirect the course of a winch line. Snatch blocks are also used to increase the lifting or pulling capacity of wire hoists and winches. It’s common for this method to produce a 100% increase in pulling or lifting capacity – beware of the extra force this has on fixing / anchor points.
