Cheek Block for Fibrous Rope
This cheek block is designed for lifting and pulling tasks using fibrous rope up to 3/8 inch diameter. It mounts on the side with a bolt-on attachment and a 5/32 inch mounting hole. The steel housing and steel sheave provide durability for industrial or marine applications. Buyers needing a rated working load limit or a different rope type should look elsewhere.
Steel Sheave with Sleeve Bearing
The sheave features a 1 1/2 inch outside diameter and a 1 3/32 inch inside diameter with a 17/32 inch depth. A single groove guides the rope over a sleeve bearing for smooth operation. Steel construction resists wear during repeated pulling cycles. No noise or thermal data applies to this manual hand tool.
Side Mount Bolt-On Installation
The block installs with a single bolt through the 5/32 inch mounting hole, freeing up space compared to larger multi-sheave blocks. It accepts only fibrous rope, not wire rope or chain. The compact single-groove design suits tight rigging points. Builders requiring multiple grooves or a rated capacity need a different block.

Questions about this item
How is the cheek block bolted on, and which hole size do installers often mismatch?
Mount the block using the 5/32 in mounting hole; the common mistake is drilling a larger bolt hole that lets the hardware shift under load.
What upkeep does the sleeve bearing need, and when should the steel sheave be replaced?
Lubricate the sleeve bearing periodically and inspect the 1 1/2 in steel sheave for groove wear; replace it when the fibrous rope shows accelerated abrasion.
Which limit appears first during continuous pulling — the sheave diameter or the rope size?
The 3/8 in maximum fibrous rope diameter is the first constraint; exceeding it overloads the 1 3/32 in sheave inside diameter and the 17/32 in sheave depth.
