European Type Security Hook – High-Security Lifting & Rigging Hardware

Key Features:

• European Design Standard: Features a gracefully curved shank that promotes natural sling alignment, reduces wear, and minimizes stress concentration during lifts.
• Integrated Spring-Loaded Safety Latch: Automatically locks the hook throat to prevent accidental disengagement of chains, slings, or D-rings—ensuring full compliance with EN 1677 and ASME B30.10 safety requirements.
• High-Strength Alloy Steel: Forged and heat-treated to Grade 80 or equivalent specifications, offering a 4:1 safety factor (Minimum Breaking Load = 4 × WLL).
• Smooth, Rounded Profile: Protects synthetic slings, wire ropes, and chains from abrasion and damage.
• Permanent Markings: Clearly stamped with Working Load Limit (WLL), size, material grade, and manufacturer ID for traceability and regulatory compliance.

Common Applications:

• Overhead crane and hoist operations
• Multi-leg chain and webbing sling assemblies
• Construction, oil & gas, and marine rigging
• Transport securement and heavy equipment recovery

Safety Recommendations:

• Use only for in-line (axial) lifting—side loading is strictly prohibited.
• Always inspect the hook and latch before use for cracks, deformation, or wear.
• Never exceed the marked Working Load Limit (WLL).
• Replace immediately if the latch is damaged or fails to close securely.

Engineered to European precision and built for maximum safety—the European Type Security Hook delivers trusted performance in the most demanding environments.
