It is recommended to use Grade 80 chain slings and shackles that are rated for the same or higher load capacity (12.5T) to ensure safe operation.

Troubleshooting

Hook is difficult to attach to container corner eye.

Ensure the container corner eye is clear of obstructions or damage. Verify the hook is the correct model for standard container eyes and is not bent or deformed. Check that shackles or slings are not obstructing the attachment point.

Hook appears to be worn or damaged.

Immediately remove the hook from service. Do not use it for any lifting operations. Contact the supplier or a qualified professional for inspection and potential replacement.

Yellow coating is chipped or peeling.

Minor cosmetic chipping may not affect structural integrity, but regularly inspect the underlying metal for corrosion or damage. If significant coating loss occurs or if corrosion is present, the hook should be removed from service.

Hook makes unusual noises during lifting.

Stop the lift immediately and inspect the hook, chain, shackles, and attachment points for any signs of strain, damage, or improper connection. Ensure all components are properly seated and rated for the load.

  • Straightforward to attach and use, minimizing setup time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Inspect the hook for any signs of damage, wear, or deformation before each use. Ensure it is clean and free from debris.
  2. Select appropriate Grade 80 chain slings and shackles that match the load capacity of the hook (12.5T).
  3. Attach the shackle to the chain sling, and then connect the shackle to the container's corner eye casting. Alternatively, directly attach the chain sling to the corner eye if the sling design allows.
  4. Connect the hook to the lifting point on the container's corner eye, ensuring a secure fit.
  5. Connect the crane or lifting equipment's rigging to the hook via the chain sling.

Compatibility:

  • Container Type: Compatible with standard ISO shipping container corner eyes.
  • Rigging: Designed for use with Grade 80 chain slings and shackles. Ensure all rigging components are rated for the intended load.
  • Lifting Equipment: Suitable for use with cranes, forklifts with lifting attachments, or other industrial lifting machinery.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down the hook with a clean, dry cloth after use. Remove any dirt, grease, or salt residue.
  • Inspection: Regularly inspect the hook for cracks, excessive wear, distortion, or damage to the yellow coating. Pay close attention to the throat opening and the load-bearing surfaces.
  • Storage: Store the hooks in a dry, protected area, away from corrosive substances and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing them where they can be damaged by impacts.
  • Maintenance: If any damage or excessive wear is noted, the hook must be immediately removed from service and professionally assessed or replaced.
