The US Rigging Supply Large Fiddle Rigging Block Set is an essential kit used by arborists for a more efficient and advanced rigging procedure. It works well with friction or lowering devices, especially Portawrap, and is designed for pre-tensioning lines, for lifting heavy objects, or for removing slack from rigging systems. This kit comes with two (2) high-strength blocks, and a working rope, making it a reliable utility for the user.
High-Quality & Durable: The included aluminum fiddle blocks are designed to be unibody, come with swiveling shackles on their top part for easy installation, and allow for up to 2 5/8" sheave diameter and 5/16" shackle. They provide a reliable system (5:1 mechanical advantage), giving 1,000 lbs. of rigging power from only 200 lbs. of input into the system, and can easily be applied on top of a host line.
One (1) of the blocks has a cleat, that can easily be released with a snap of the wrist, that helps in an improved control of the device. The included working rope is made from a heavy-duty 1/2" diameter, double-braided material with spliced eye, providing a limit of 44' working spread for the fiddle block. The kit can be attached to a host line and an anchor, with the help of rigging prusiks and carabiners, which are both sold separately.
