    Nope mine was made in Australia and has smooth guides for running synthetic line
    Make one like that and sell it for around the same price and I'll jump on it. I've got an affinity for stuff made here

    Our Bailey's Snatch Block is made for synthetic rope too!

    The 4” steel sheave is machined to a smooth finish for use with synthetic winchlines and cable up to 7/16”. A self-lubricating bronze bushing is pressed into the sheave for maintenance free use. The design of the laser cut side plates allows you to rig the block in seconds and utilize the large opening for a variety of rigging options. All steel parts have corrosion resistant zinc plating. Specifics: 9,000 lb. WLL (4:1 Design Factor), 41,000 lb. Breaking Strength, Up to 7/16”, 7.35 lbs

    Our block comes with a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee; if you aren't happy we will make it right!

    Our block is $69.99 for one and $63.99 each if four or more are purchased, plus shipping and taxes if applicable (NC Only). We can ship the block Postal, anywhere in the US for $10 with insurance.

    I would love to get our block in your hands; like I said it's guaranteed for your approval.

    Would not recommend purchase or towing services from Bailey's. My rig as well as several friends rigs have had items stolen by the bailey team. Lots of issues with their customer service. Do not buy from these guys at all.

    Give their local BBB and police department a ring and ask how many complaints have been filed against these guys. I'm not surprised that they are advertising on here without a paid membership... very typical of these guys.

    Remember that silver g4 land rover that you guys stole all of the gear out of after the accident - coming to bite you in the *** now...

    Mr. Tamer,

    You must be confussing us with someone else. Check out our BBB page and police department (Wake County, NC). There is none.

    I am glad that there are people out there helping others to stay away from bad people but please make sure that you know who you are talking about. Bad publicity really hurts companys; especially ones falsly confussed. I will give anybody customer names and numbers of clients who can tell you about us.

    You can contact me personally, Susan Bailey (VP) Bailey's Towing Accessories. Wake Forest NC

    You are saying the one in NC. I ask because there are about 10 different company's that pop up all over the country in the BBB search I did. The one in NC has an A+ rating from the BBB, but it is just the towing company not the towing accessories, inc.

    Bailey's Snatch Block has an oil-impregnanted bronzed bushing that doesn't require lubricatioin.

    In order to field strip our unit, only one clip must be removed. It can be taken apart and cleaned (if ever needed) in a matter of seconds.
