I would be happy using a block with an Ultimate Load Limit of 10t or more - often described as Working Load Limit etc. I put my tuppence worth in because the thinking in some of the previous posts looked a little suspect, but the conclusions looked ok - The Clarke unit indicated is more than strong enough to use with the wire on your winch, although the screw fitment securing the hinging cheek to the block looks vulnerable to damage if you are dragging logs through stumps etc.

 

Cheers
