Grade 80 Swivel Self-Locking Hook

The Grade 80 Swivel Self-Locking Hook is designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications where both load security and proper load alignment are essential. Manufactured from high-strength Grade 80 alloy steel, this hook combines an automatic self-locking mechanism with a swivel design that helps position the hook correctly before lifting, reducing twisting and improving load control.

The self-locking mechanism automatically engages when a load is applied, helping prevent accidental disengagement during lifting operations. The swivel connection allows the hook to align naturally with the load and lifting assembly, making it ideal for chain slings, wire rope slings, and other rigging systems used in industrial, construction, and material handling environments. This hook meets or exceeds ASTM A952/A952M and ASME B30.10 requirements.

Features

• Grade 80 Alloy Steel Construction: Built for demanding lifting and rigging applications.
• Automatic Self-Locking Mechanism: Helps secure loads by automatically locking when under tension.
• Swivel Design: Allows the hook to align with the load to help reduce twisting and improve positioning.
• Enhanced Load Security: Designed to help prevent accidental disengagement during lifting operations.
• Industry-Compliant Design: Meets or exceeds ASTM A952/A952M and ASME B30.10 standards.

Common Applications

• Overhead lifting operations
• Chain sling assemblies
• Wire rope sling systems
• Industrial material handling
• Construction and maintenance lifting

Installation Tips

• Verify the hook capacity matches the intended load and lifting assembly requirements.
• Allow the swivel to align naturally before loading and confirm the locking mechanism is fully engaged.
• Inspect hooks, swivel components, locking mechanisms, and rigging hardware regularly for wear, deformation, or damage.
