Sometimes your winch just doesn't have enough pulling power, and sometimes there's nothing in a straight line with your anchor point. The Sherpa 4x4 snatch block solves both problems — it lets you nearly double your pulling force and freely change the direction of the line.

Who it's for

This is a handy piece of kit if you regularly recover from tough terrain and want the option to double your winch's pulling force or redirect the line when your anchor point isn't in a straight line.

Important with synthetic rope: the rope must remain correctly seated in the pulley groove throughout the recovery, or it risks becoming trapped between the pulley and the side plates.

Why it's worth it

• Scissor design — no need to feed the rope through the pulley, which speeds up rigging
• 10,000kg rated capacity, fits both steel and synthetic rope
• Grease nipple for easy maintenance, carry pouch included
