A snatch block is a variation of pulley that has been designed to allow quick attaching and releasing of lines. They work by having an opening mechanism for the side cheek, there are several different styles available on the market, but the Allen range comes with a simple hinge mechanism that allows the side cheek to open a bit like the infamous gull-wing car door or an oyster shell. This basic 30mm Snatch Block has a simple click closure without a permanent keeper, making it the perfect choice for any application where attaching and releasing from control lines is important.
