The SecureFix Direct G80 Clevis Skip Hook provides a robust and secure connection for G80 chains up to 13MM, ensuring reliable load handling with its spring-loaded gate.

The Safe Working Load (SWL) for this G80 Clevis Skip Hook is 5.3 Tonnes (5300 kg).
This hook is designed specifically for use with G80 chains that have a 13MM diameter.
The spring-loaded gate is designed to automatically close and latch securely when the hook is under load. This prevents the accidental dislodging of the skip or bin during lifting operations.
Grade 80 is a high-strength alloy steel commonly used for lifting chains and accessories. It offers superior tensile strength and durability compared to lower grades, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
No, for safety and performance reasons, this hook must only be used with G80 chains of 13MM diameter. Using incompatible chains can lead to failure and accidents.
It is recommended to inspect the hook before each use, and conduct more thorough periodic inspections according to your workplace safety regulations and the manufacturer's guidelines.
The approximate dimensions are: Length (From Clevis Pin To End Of Eye): 143MM, Width: 125.25MM, Eye Width: 70MM, Eye Length (From Spring Gate): 50MM.
Inspect the gate mechanism for dirt, debris, or corrosion. Clean thoroughly with a degreaser and lubricate with a suitable penetrating oil. If damage is present, the hook should be retired from service.
Discontinue use immediately. Worn clevis connections can compromise the integrity of the link. Replace the hook.
Ensure the lifting point on the skip is undamaged and compatible with the hook's eye dimensions. Verify the chain is correctly attached and tensioned, allowing the gate to fully close and engage.
Surface rust can often be cleaned with a wire brush and protected with a light oil. Significant corrosion that affects the material's thickness or shape indicates the hook should be replaced.
