McKissick® 380Z Series Easy Reeve® Hook Blocks are advanced lifting devices designed for efficient and convenient reeving of wire ropes. Manufactured by The Crosby Group, a trusted provider of rigging and lifting equipment, the 380Z Series Easy Reeve® Hook Blocks offer improved productivity and ease of use in various lifting applications.
Here are some key features and characteristics of McKissick® 380Z Series Easy Reeve® Hook Blocks:
Easy Reeve® Design: The 380Z Series Hook Blocks feature an innovative Easy Reeve® design, which allows for quick and easy reeving of wire ropes. This design eliminates the need for manual threading of the wire rope through the sheaves, saving time and reducing the risk of errors during setup.
Reeving Configuration: These hook blocks are available in various reeving configurations, including single sheave, double sheave, and multi-sheave designs. The number of sheaves determines the lifting capacity and the number of lines (strands) of wire rope that can be accommodated.
Swivel Hook: The hook block is equipped with a swivel hook that provides flexibility and ease of attachment to lifting devices, such as cranes or hoists. The swivel hook allows the load to rotate freely, minimizing stress on the wire rope and improving lifting efficiency.
Working Load Limit (WLL): Each McKissick® 380Z Series Easy Reeve® Hook Block is rated with a specific working load limit, indicating the maximum load it can safely handle. It is important to select the appropriate hook block based on the intended load requirements and the capacity of the lifting equipment being used.
Safety Features: The 380Z Series Hook Blocks often feature safety latches or hooks with safety pins to prevent accidental disengagement of the load during lifting operations. These safety features help ensure secure attachment and enhance overall safety.
Durability: McKissick® 380Z Series Easy Reeve® Hook Blocks are constructed from high-strength steel and undergo rigorous testing to ensure their durability and reliability in demanding working conditions. They are designed to withstand heavy loads, resist wear, and provide long-lasting performance.
Identification and Markings: McKissick® 380Z Series Easy Reeve® Hook Blocks are typically marked with relevant information, including the manufacturer's logo, working load limit (WLL), and other specifications. These markings help users easily identify the hook block and ensure compliance with safety standards.
