Grade 80 Swivel Self-Locking Safety Hook – European Type, Forged Alloy Steel
Engineered for Dynamic Loads, Built for Maximum Safety

Key Features:

• 360° Swivel + 180° Pivot Action: Allows the hook to rotate freely and align naturally with shifting loads, reducing stress on slings, chains, and rigging hardware.
• Integrated Self-Locking Safety Latch: A spring-loaded mechanism automatically secures the throat upon engagement, preventing accidental disengagement—fully compliant with OSHA and ASME B30.10.
• European-Type Design: Features a gracefully curved shank and smooth eye that promote optimal load distribution and minimize wear on synthetic or wire slings.
• Grade 80 Alloy Steel Construction: Offers a minimum tensile strength of 800 N/mm² (116,000 psi) and a 4:1 safety factor—certified for overhead lifting.
• Permanent Markings: Clearly stamped with Working Load Limit (WLL), size, Grade 80 designation, manufacturer ID, and CE mark for full traceability and compliance.
• High-Visibility Finish: Typically coated in red or yellow powder paint for corrosion resistance and easy visual inspection.

Common Applications:

• Overhead crane and hoist operations with dynamic or rotating loads
• Multi-leg chain or webbing sling assemblies in oil & gas, mining, and steel fabrication
• Recovery, transport, and heavy equipment lifting
• Marine and offshore rigging where load stability is essential

Safety Recommendations:

• Use only with other Grade 80 components to maintain system integrity.
• Never exceed the marked WLL.
• Inspect before each use—retire immediately if the latch is damaged, stiff, or fails to close securely.
• Intended for in-line (axial) lifting only—side loading is strictly prohibited.

When your lift demands motion, security, and European engineering precision—trust the Grade 80 Swivel Self-Locking Safety Hook for strength you can rely on, every time.
