The 9 sheave block.
Large Liebherr mobile and crawler cranes use a variety of sizes of hook block depending on the lifting planned. This is scale model of a 9 sheave hook

Packaging

The review hook was supplied with the LG1550 Mobile Crane model and was well wrapped in tissue and enclosed in a plastic bag.

Detail and Features

It is very well detailed with realistic cheek weights on the block bearing the Liebherr name and tiny safety bars to retain the rope on the pulleys.  The metal pulleys are nicely free rolling and there are working safety catches on the hooks.  The hook element also rotates separately from the block.

Quality and Price

As with other YCC items the part is very well made. It is reasonable value for money.

Overall

This hook block will enhance any Liebherr model for which it is an appropriate size.  It is also available in an alternative version with yellow and white stripes.
