How To Use A Snatch Block for Winches

1. A lot of off-road recovery snatch blocks have two rotating sides. To properly position your winch line, make sure the top part is rotated to fully expose the interior pulley.
2. Now, with a D-ring, attach the non-pulley part of the towing snatch block to an anchor point.
3. If you are recovering yourself, you can attach the line back onto the front of your vehicle and perform a double line pull.
4. If you are helping someone else recover their jeep or ATV vehicle, more care is needed. You may be using the snatch block in this situation not for added strength, but to compensate for an odd angle. It’s important to have the vehicle you are towing facing the anchor point.
5. Keep in mind that snatch blocks have a maximum weight capacity. You’ll want to make sure that both your winch line and snatch block can handle the force, otherwise the snatch block pulley may become deformed or your winch line may snap.

Increase Pulling Power

• When choosing snatch blocks for winches, make sure that the working load limits of the winch and snatch block are compatible.
• The winch snatch block must be at least as strong as your winch line.
• Make sure the groove in the towing snatch block fits the diameter of your winch line.
• A groove that is too large won’t fully support the winch line and could cause damages.

Change Directions

• Since superwinch snatch blocks are anchored in a fixed position, the wider the angle means the less force the anchor point has to withstand.
• Jeep snatch blocks are also used as anchor points to change the winch line direction from the disabled vehicle to increase pulling power.
• Multiple small snatch blocks can even be used for self-extraction, by routing the winch line from the back of the recovery truck to several anchored blocks to the front of the truck.

How To Inspect Snatch Blocks for Winches with Hooks!

• Deformation: it's an indication of overload and replacement is necessary.
• Swivel end-play of more than 1/16".
• Spreading side plates must be repaired or replaced.
• Looseness in the side plates is a sign of loose damaged or worn-out nuts.
• Groove wear in the sheave is caused by cable wear; this will also reduce the wire rope life.
• Any hook deformation, crack, gouge or distortion needs to be replaced.
