7 Groove

At iStudio Projects, our iSP Loft Block Series B 7-Groove Underhung is a high-capacity multi-groove theatrical rigging block designed for large pipe battens requiring seven simultaneous lift lines. Built with the same rugged sealed bearing sheave assembly and welded heavy-steel housing as all Series B blocks, the 7-groove delivers the broad lift-line distribution needed for long, heavily loaded battens while maintaining the same 875 lb rated line load capacity.

  • Underhung clamp system compatible with standard steel wide flange grid beams
  • Uniform 875 lb line load capacity across all seven grooves
  • Warning and line-set identification labels on each unit
  • Load Limit: Never exceed 875 lbs per line; seven-groove configuration does not aggregate capacity
  • Rope Condition: Inspect all seven lines individually for twisting, kinking, wear, or damage before operation
  • Equipment Condition: Do not operate damaged, malfunctioning, or field-modified equipment
  • Clearance: Seven active rope paths require expanded clear zones — keep all personnel clear during travel
  • Annual Inspection: Required per ANSI E1.47; log inspection date and inspector per unit
  • Mounting: Verify beam flange width accommodates the 7-groove block footprint; confirm clamping torque before loading
  • Line Management: Confirm all seven lift lines are correctly reeved, evenly tensioned, and properly seated in grooves before loading the batten; uneven loading across grooves can cause batten tilt
