Vertical Lead Blocks

Superior Quality

All directional blocks are manufactured from the highest quality fine-grain steel and are built to last longer with minimal maintenance.

Longer Rope Life

All directional blocks are designed using a minimum 15:1 sheave diameter to rope diameter ratio, therefore reducing the bending stress on the rope and ensuring a longer rope life.

Working Loads

All Sheave Canada blocks are rated for the full working load at an 180 degree wrap angle.

Bronze Bushings

All vertical blocks are designed with self-lubricating bronze bushings for low maintenance. Sealed bearings and roller bearings are available upon request.
