How to choose the right cribbing block
Compare the options and specifications in the table above and pick the size or configuration that matches your equipment and load.
Specifications explained
- Material: UHMWPE — High-density polyethylene is tough, light and does not rot or absorb water.
Before you buy
- Know the load weight and the hitch you will use.
- Check the rated capacity for that hitch and the sling angle.
- Confirm fittings and pin sizes are compatible with your rigging.
Safety and care
- Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and rated limits.
- Inspect equipment before each use.
- Replace worn or damaged parts.
To complete your setup, many buyers also look at shackles, slings and crosby® lifting hooks — see the suggestions below.
Three steps to the right choice
- Match capacity to the lift. Choose gear whose WLL exceeds the load in the hitch you will use.
- Mind the angle. Sling angles under 60° raise leg tension sharply; use the capacity chart for your angle.
- Inspect every time. Retire gear with cuts, heat damage, stretched links, distorted hooks or missing tags.
