Multipurpose snatch-block - OX Block™

The OX BLOCK™ is a rope snatch-block with an integrated friction bar used for:

• Light weight, compact kit that can be stored and carried in a back pack for remote operational activities
• Raising and lowering equipment (hauling line block)
• Rescue
• Snubbing loads

It allows the rigging professional to handle loads with greater control. When lowering loads, tension is transferred from the worker to the OX

• The patented OX BLOCK™ replaces standard hand-line blocks, parted blocks and various snatch blocks.
• Has a greater WLL than blocks of similar size.
• When configured with optional pulleys, the OX BLOCK™ can be used to create a 2:1 up to 6:1 mechanical advantage reducing the amount of force needed to lift heavy loads.
• The advantage of the pulleys used by Buckingham is the swivel side plate that allows for quick and easy rope installation without removing the pulley from the connecting device.
• ASME B30 Compliant

Replace many of the older style pulleys and tackle with the lighter Ox Block system, making rescue, lowering and raising and snubbing workloads easier

Ox Block includes metric markings to comply with relevant Australian Standards
