Cheek Block for Wire Rope
The Peerless cheek block is a side-mount pulley designed for lifting or pulling tasks with wire rope up to 1/4 in diameter. It suits rigging professionals and maintenance crews who need a fixed redirect point on structural steel.
Bolt-on installation with sleeve bearing
The block mounts through a 7/32 in hole using a bolt-on pattern and runs on a steel sleeve bearing with a single groove. Alignment must be checked so the rope enters the 2 in outside-diameter sheave squarely; misalignment causes rapid groove wear and bearing bind.
Verify rope size and mounting geometry
Confirm the working wire rope is exactly 1/4 in and that the structure can accept the side-mount footprint with the stated hole spacing. The sheave inside diameter is 1 17/32 in and depth is 15/32 in — ensure the rope bend radius and fleet angle suit the application. No working load limit is rated by the manufacturer.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the cheek block is operating correctly after bolting it on?
After mounting, feed a 1/4 in wire rope through the 2 in steel sheave and apply a light load; the 15/32 in deep groove should keep the rope seated and the sleeve bearing should rotate freely without binding.
What comes with the Peerless cheek block and what must I supply?
The package includes the steel cheek pulley block with a 7/32 in mounting hole; you must provide the mounting bolt, a 1/4 in wire rope and any rigging hardware needed for your lifting or pulling setup.
Which version should I choose for a 1/4 in wire rope?
This model is built specifically for 1/4 in wire rope with a 2 in outside diameter sheave and 15/32 in groove depth; select it when those dimensions match your rigging requirements.
