HEAD BLOCKS
Head blocks are located at the upper portion of the counterweight system above the arbor. The purpose of the head block is to gather all the lift lines from the loft blocks and reeve them toward the arbor top. The head block sheave also contains a purchase line groove to enable the operator to raise and lower a balanced set. Three styles are available to suit a variety of mounting conditions.
We offer underhung , upright and double purchase head blocks.
LOFT BLOCKS
Loft blocks are used in groups for raising or lowering pipe battens. Lift lines reeve from the pipe batten around the loft block and toward the head block. Loft blocks may also be used singly or spotted on the grid for special applications.
We offer underhung, upright and idler loft blocks.
