5.0 bare block weight

[Cashbum]

Does anyone know the weight of a bare block?

Just had one shipped to me. UPS label said 100.4lbs. I would say box & styrofoam was maybe 5lbs. So going by that 95lbs

Do you happen to know how much it was to ship? Also how was it packaged? Just in a plain ole box?

I don't know what shipping cost. It was included in the price. It was used, UPS just boxed it up & put small boxes & Styrofoam around it.
UPS website say ground freighkt under 151lbs is about $350 coast to coast

About 20lbs heavier than a Teksid and still not as strong, what a shame....

The block is very strong. The sleeves are the weak point.

Regardless, it'll break before the lightweight Teksid rendering it useless.
