About Pulleys

Hanging Pulleys for Wire Rope—For Horizontal Pulling
Hang these pulleys from hooks, screws, and bolts to assist with horizontal pulling or to guide a rope.
Pulleys with two grooves are for use where multiple pulleys move a single load, such as block and tackle systems. They require about half the force of a single-groove pulley to move the same load. They have a bracket on the bottom for tying off one end of your wire rope.
Pulleys with a bearing are easier to turn than pulleys without a bearing.
Nylon is lighter in weight than metal. Stainless steel is the most corrosion resistant.

Easy-Open Hanging Pulleys for Wire Rope—For Horizontal Pulling
Also known as snatch blocks, these pulleys open so it’s easier to feed the rope through the housing—a free rope end is not needed. Use them to assist with horizontal pulling or to guide a rope.

Acetal, nylon, and aluminum are lightweight and corrosion resistant. Stainless steel is the most corrosion resistant.
Styles C and H have a bracket on the bottom for tying off one end of a rope.
Style J reduce the force needed to hold your load in place. Unlike standard pulleys, these have a V-groove for more grip on your rope, and they ratchet when under load so they won't slip in the other direction. Pulley for 3/8" dia. rope can be set to ratchet even when not under load.

Hanging Pulleys for Rope—For Lifting
Hang these pulleys from hooks, screws, and bolts.
Pulleys with two grooves are used in applications where multiple pulleys move a single load, such as block and tackle systems. They can reduce the force needed to move the load by up to two times compared to single-groove pulleys.
Pulleys with a bearing are easier to turn than pulleys without a bearing.
Style A pulleys have a bracket on the bottom for tying off one end of a rope.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
