Merrimen Snatch Block repair
I've recently come into possession of two older Merrimen #3 Snatch Blocks. The rollers seem to be frozen in place. These are Stainless hardware with what looks like hard rubber bodies. Does anybody know how to properly disassemble and lubricate these blocks?

That is almost normal. Spray with T-9 Boeshield and work them.
