It is primarily used as a heavy-duty weld-on tie-down point, often for trailers, but can also serve as a general anchor point or form a loop when welded end-on.
The hook is made from solid steel with a thickness of 12mm.
No, this is a weld-on product and does not include bolts or screws. It requires welding for installation.
'Self-colour' means the product is supplied in its natural, unpainted state. It may have a slight surface rust or discoloration which is normal and can be cleaned and coated if desired.
The hook is approximately 65mm along each side, with a thickness of 12mm.
No, this hook is specifically designed with a flattened back for welding and is not intended for bolt-on applications.
A strong, professional weld appropriate for 12mm steel is recommended. Common methods like MIG, Stick, or TIG welding can be used by a qualified professional.
Ensure proper surface preparation, correct welding settings for the material thickness, and use appropriate welding rods/wire. Consider a qualified welder if unsure.
This is normal for 'self-colour' steel. Clean the surface thoroughly before welding and apply a protective coating after installation.
Ensure the mounting surface is truly flat and free of debris. Grind the back of the hook slightly if necessary to match the contour of the mounting surface.

Compatibility:
This hook is compatible with any steel surface capable of accepting a weld. Its primary use is on trailers, vehicles, and fabrication projects where a strong, permanent anchor point is required.
Care:
As the hook is supplied 'self-colour', it is advisable to apply a protective coating such as paint, primer, or a rust inhibitor, especially if used in outdoor or corrosive environments. Clean with a dry or damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage any protective coating.
