An OX BLOCKĀ® with the Ox Hook™ & Ox Horn™, 4ā² x 5/8ā adjustable sling and option between an 80ā², 100ā, or 250ā handline assembly.
The OX BLOCKĀ® is a rope snatchblock with an integrated friction bar used for:
- Hurtman/self-rescue
- Lowering
- Raising
- Snubbing loads
*Handline hook and snap are not intended for human support.
It allows the rigging professional to handle loads with greater control. When lowering loads, tension is transferred from the worker to the OX BLOCKĀ®.
- The patented OX BLOCKĀ® replaces standard handline blocks, parted blocks and various snatch blocks.
- Has greater WLLs than blocks of similar size.
- When configured with optional pulleys, the OX BLOCKĀ® can be used to create a 4:1, 5:1 or 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
