Allen X2 AutoRatchet Blocks
The Allen AutoRatchet Blocks have a new X2 system, which incorporates two pawls into the mechanism for the ratchet blocks. Allowing the load to be evenly shared between both pawls, this allows the block to withstand higher working loads while also increasing the reliability and longevity of the block when compared to the outgoing model.
The AutoRatchet block series is available in 45mm and 60mm sheave sizes and also replaces the Ezi-Ratchet block range.
