The Lowdown
At approximately half the size of the standard small rigging block and weighing in at only 490g (1lb), the new compact rigging block offers a highly impressive strength to weight ratio, with an 85kN (19000lbs) MBS and WLL of 17kN (3800lbs).
The Pulley plates are made from hot forged Aluminium and it is this manufacturing process which allows such a compact pulley to boast such great strength and dynamic load bearing capacity.
