Notch Safebloc Arborist Rigging Friction Device

The Notch Safebloc is a professional-grade arborist rigging friction device designed to provide additional friction and control during tree removal and lowering operations. Its three-hole design allows rigging crews to manage friction at the upper rigging point, helping control the descent of branches and sections of timber.

Manufactured in the USA, the Safebloc features a durable, compact construction designed for demanding tree care and rigging applications. The smooth, rounded rope passages help reduce rope abrasion while allowing controlled friction during lowering operations.

Unlike a conventional rigging pulley, the Safebloc uses friction to help manage loads, making it a useful component in arborist rigging systems where controlled lowering is required.
