Thats a pretty hefty block. I've had a lot of experience of heavy blocks recently, I've burnt out 5 BIG blocks in the last 4 months. What application do you need it for?

[Ben Ballard]

Thancks for your help that sounds good nice one:001_smile:

[Ben Ballard]

thancks again for all your help I wanted it to use with my holder and 5 tone igland winch was told on my winch course that what ishould use when doing of set winching ,i have always just used the chockers to of set stuf in the past ,have a few banks in our woods so should be a handy bit of kit to have

If that's for steel rope i use clark's up in parkgate,dumfries.They can send them down to you.I have 2 blocks,one for the 12mm rope and a bigger one for the 16mm rope.The bigger block is 32t SWL smaller one 8t SWL i think.Both are swing cheek with swivel.You'll find them on the net or phone and ask for colin.

I use Bill moore lifting in Morecambe, and I have eventually found a small but very heavy duty 4" bearinged block with swing cheek, it stands up to the rigours of skylining, which so far little else has.

[Ben Ballard]

sounds like you do some serious jobs with your kit ,it good to hear what kind of equipment you use cheers

[Mr Ed]

yeah, the last thing you want is to have to pack some dirty great block 400m across a clearfell.

If you call Bill Moore on 01524 854692, Tell him you want the same block as Ed Thorman had (the one he converted to needle bearings). Should be about £60.
