The Bushranger® Snatch Block is engineered and field tested in Australia by 4WD enthusiasts with many years of
experience. Further testing has also been carried out at a NATA accredited laboratory to verify the design.
Providing multiple options in self-recovery situations, the Bushranger® Snatch Block is a 4×4 essential for single vehicle
recoveries using a winch. Increasing the winch’s pulling power, a snatch block works to retrieve loads that are double a
winch’s capacity by halving the load on the winch, also aids winching from different angles when straight isn’t an option.
Designed with variable applications in mind, the snatch block incorporates a tapered pulley design that allows for
multiple sized ropes to be used in the one product. Rounded edges assist with guiding the rope in and out of the Snatch
Block but also prevents damage to both Synthetic and Wire Ropes.
Upswept tabs on the side plates offer additional rigidity but also allow for easy operation, even when wearing gloves.
Selecting a recovery product that has too low a breaking strain may cause the product to fail during the recovery
process. This could result in serious injury or death, and could potentially cause serious damage to vehicles.
