Description
The Yale Hinged Pulley Blocks with Single Steel Sheave are designed for professional lifting, pulling and rigging applications where efficient wire rope handling and rapid installation are required. Their hinged side plate design allows one side of the block to be opened, enabling the wire rope to be quickly and easily positioned onto the sheave without the need to fully thread the rope through the block.
Available in capacity ratings from 1000kg up to 6400kg, these pulley blocks are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications including construction, steel fabrication, shipbuilding, utilities, mining and general engineering. They can be used to redirect wire ropes, change the direction of pull, or create flexible and temporary rigging points for lifting and pulling systems.
A key safety feature of the design is the automatic locking function achieved by swinging the hook in the direction of pull. This action securely locks the hinged side plate during operation, preventing accidental opening under load and ensuring safe, stable performance.
The pulley blocks are equipped with high-quality cast steel sheaves featuring precision-machined rope grooves. These grooves ensure correct rope seating, smooth running and reduced wear on both the sheave and the wire rope. Each sheave is fitted with Permaglide? bushes, providing low-friction operation, excellent wear resistance and long service life even under frequent or heavy-duty use.
The robust steel housing and carefully engineered dimensions allow the pulley block to withstand demanding site conditions and high dynamic loads. The compact yet strong design makes it suitable for use in confined spaces while maintaining reliable load handling and rope alignment.
With compatibility for a range of wire rope diameters, the Yale hinged pulley blocks offer flexibility across different rigging setups. Their straightforward operation and durable construction make them a dependable component within lifting systems, winching arrangements and temporary pulling installations.
As with all Yale lifting accessories, these pulley blocks are manufactured to high quality standards and are intended for professional use where safety, reliability and long-term performance are essential.
