-
Snatch rope ring → An aluminium recovery ring (pulley alternative) used with a snatch rope to change direction or reduce strain during towing/recovery.
-
Material → Aluminium 7075 — a high-strength aerospace-grade aluminium alloy, very strong yet lightweight.
-
MBS 55,115 lbs → Minimum Breaking Strength — the maximum load it can withstand before breaking.
-
WLL 26,550 lbs → Working Load Limit — the safe recommended limit (usually ~50% of MBS).
-
12 mm (1/2") synthetic rope only → Must be used with synthetic winch line or rope of that diameter (no steel cable).
Purpose
-
This ring replaces a heavy snatch block (pulley) and works with a soft shackle + synthetic rope to redirect pulls or double the pulling power.
-
Safer than steel pulleys — if it fails, it’s lighter and less dangerous.
-
Common in 4x4, off-road, and recovery situations.
If you want, I can make a clear labeled diagram showing how this aluminium snatch ring works with a snatch rope and soft shackle in a towing setup. That would make it easy to see how everything connects.
