This Crosby® McKissick 8" sheave block with hook is a McKissick 418 type snatch block sized for 5/8" to 3/4" wire rope, built with a forged alloy, heat treated hook and roller bearings instead of bushings. The roller bearings cut down on drag and hold up better than a bushed block under frequent cycling. It's engineered to meet or exceed ASME B30.26 requirements, with a hook assembly that interchanges across the 4-1/2" to 14" McKissick size range.
