RotopaX PaX 12 Ton Forged Snatch Block — 24,000 lb WLL

Key Features

• 12-ton forged snatch block — doubles your winch's effective pulling force or redirects the winch line to a more favorable recovery angle
• 24,000 lb Working Load Limit (WLL) — rated for demanding recovery loads well beyond typical winch capacities
• 48,000 lb Minimum Breaking Strength (MBS) — significant safety margin above the working load limit
• Forged steel construction — stronger and more reliable under load than cast alternatives
• High-visibility orange finish — easy to locate in a gear bag or on the ground during a recovery
• Swivel hook attachment — connects to anchor points via D-ring or soft shackle and allows the block to orient freely under load
• Compatible with both wire rope and synthetic winch line
• Included in the RotopaX PaX Recovery Gear Kit and available separately as a standalone component

What's Included

• One 12 Ton Forged Snatch Block

Important Notes

• GREASE BEFORE FIRST USE — apply grease to the axle and pulley wheel before putting the snatch block under load; running it dry causes friction, heat, and premature wear that will reduce performance and shorten the life of the block
• Always attach the snatch block to a rated anchor point using a shackle rated for the expected load — the block is only as strong as its attachment hardware
• Inspect before each use — retire and replace if cracks, deformation, rough pulley rotation, or damage to the swivel hook are present
• Use a winch dampener on the line during recovery operations to reduce projectile risk in the event of hardware failure
