McKissick® 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane Blocks

McKissick® 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane Blocks are specialized lifting blocks designed for use in bridge crane applications. Manufactured by The Crosby Group, a trusted provider of rigging and lifting equipment, these blocks are designed to handle heavy loads and provide efficient and reliable lifting operations in bridge crane systems.
Here are some key features and characteristics of McKissick® 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane Blocks:
Design: The 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane Blocks feature a robust and durable design. They consist of a steel block with two sheaves (pulleys) mounted on a central pin. The sheaves have grooves to accommodate wire ropes, providing a secure grip during lifting operations.
Double Sheave Configuration: The double sheave design of these blocks allows for multiple lines (strands) of wire rope to be reeved through the sheaves. This configuration provides increased lifting capacity and improved stability during lifting operations.
Swivel Hook: The blocks are typically equipped with a swivel hook that provides flexibility and ease of attachment to lifting devices, such as bridge 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® 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane Block is rated with a specific working load limit, indicating the maximum load it can safely handle. It is important to select the appropriate block based on the intended load requirements and the capacity of the crane system.
Safety Features: The 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane 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® 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane 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® 752 Double Sheave Bridge Crane 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 block and ensure compliance with safety standards.
