The ARB name means quality and strength. Double the line-pull of your winch line, or use the snatch block with a D-shackle and tree strap around a tree to handle off-angle pulls. Designed in Australia by ARB engineers, the Snatch Block 9000 features a two-piece polymer pulley design for increased functionality and safety during a vehicle recovery. Tested to withstand the extremes of off-road competition winching, the snatch block features rounded safety edges to protect against pinch points during recovery situations, and also allows for easy one-handed loading and unloading of the cable or rope. The working load encountered during winching also has a positive effect on the snatch block by causing the plates to press together for extra support. With a snatch block, you can undertake a forward recovery of a stuck vehicle in front of you by using a snatch block from an anchor point up the trail.
