Types of Crane C HooK

Counter Balanced C-hooks

This crane C-hook has a lower member length ("L" dimension) which equals the maximum coil width. The full length support feature of this C-hook increases the amount of surface area in contact with the coil, minimizing the potential for damage to the inner wraps of lighter gauge coil stock.

Motorized Rotating C Hook

The motorized rotating crane C-hook, a mill duty lifter, comes equipped with a motorized rotator capable of continuous 360° rotation. This feature provides additional capability for safe and precise positioning of coils.

Mill Duty C-hook.The mill duty C-hooks are designed for continuous, severe mill service. Larger sections and corner radii keep stresses to a minimum to provide maximum service life.

Close Stacking C-hook for Narrow Aisles

This C-hook is designed for close stacking. The distance from pick-up point (center of gravity) to the end of the C hook is shortened. The shorter lifting arm permits handling all coil widths within operating range (widest to narrowest) without the lifting arm extending beyond the outer edge of the coil. The reduced overall width of this style of C hook lifter can help decrease aisle space requirements, increasing storage capacity.

Paper Roll C hook

This C-hook lifts the paper roll by inserting the lower member through the roll core.

C-hooks for Narrow Coils

The type of C-hook I has the lifting bail is turned 90° and burned from the same piece of plate as the hook, making it an integral part of the C-hook.

Spring balanced C-hook

• Eliminates counter weight and minimizes C-hook weight
• Coil edge protection available
• Particularly useful for handling large coils
