With a wide variety of variations, sizes and weight limitations, it’s vital that you know what to find when choosing a snatch block for the work. Factors to keep in mind when choosing a snatch prevent for your rigging demands:
Check the Working Load Limit (WLL) of both snatch prevent and the wire rope. If the WLL of the pulley is not appropriate for the WLL of the rope, it could create a dangerous problem if either one should fail.
Coordinate how big is the sheave in the snatch block to the size of the cable rope. If the cable rope is too big for the sheave, the prevent can crack. Generally, the wire rope-to-sheave size ratio ought to be 12:1 in order to hold the wire effectively while under load.
Know your numbers. Just because a snatchblock can slice the direct pull load in half, select a rigging pulley which has a rating of dual the draw of the winch you’ll be applying with it.

For use with from sailboats to ATVs, a snatch block can be a legitimate workhorse. Known as a rigging block because it contributes to or “snatches” the mechanical pressure of pull, it includes a 
unique combination of power and flexibility. When used in combination with a winch, a prevent lets you pull or lift hefty things by “breaking” the pull span between your object and the winch. This cuts the direct pull load in two, which doubles the amount of excess weight your winch can pull.
