Light Crane Hook

　　Light crane hooks, due to their lightweight, flexible, and cost-effective design, are widely used in warehousing and logistics, workshop assembly, and small equipment installation. With a rated load of 0.5 to 20 tons, light crane hooks are primarily used on light and small cranes such as electric hoists and jib cranes.

　　Weihua Crane is a world-renowned crane manufacturer, and its cranes are sold in over 130 countries worldwide. Weihua Crane's light and small crane equipment parts factory manufactures light crane hooks that are durable, safe, and adaptable, and are widely used on various types of crane equipment worldwide.

　　Weihua's light crane hook design features the following:

　　1. Lightweight and High Strength

　　Material Innovation: Utilizing high-strength aluminum alloy or alloy steel (such as 35CrMo), they are 30% to 50% lighter than traditional hooks (for example, a 1-ton hook weighs only 3 to 5 kg) while maintaining the same load capacity.

　　Structural Optimization: A hollow design and thin-wall reinforcement process reduce deadweight while maintaining strength, making them suitable for manual handling and small crane applications.

　　2. Flexibility and Adaptability

　　Quick Connection: Standard swivel bearing or universal joint design (rotation angle ≥ 270°) prevents wire rope entanglement during lifting and improves work efficiency.

　　Multi-Scenario Adaptability: Compatible with lightweight equipment such as electric hoists, hand hoists, and jib cranes, with interfaces compliant with DIN 15401/ISO 2415 standards.

　　Modular Expansion: Upgrade to a smart hook by adding an electric remote control, a load cell (accuracy ±0.5% FS), or an anti-sway module.

　　3. Safety and Reliability

　　Redundant Design: Double nut anti-loosening structure + safety tongue prevents unhooking even in the event of accidental impact (passes EN 13155 anti-loosening test).

　　Overload Protection: Select models feature a built-in mechanical overload alarm (with adjustable threshold), which automatically triggers audible and visual warnings when overloaded.

　　Surface Treatment: Galvanized or polyurethane coated, corrosion resistance class C4 (ISO 12944), suitable for humid or mildly corrosive environments.

　　4. Ergonomic Design

　　Low Headroom Requirement: Compact hook head design with a minimum hook height of only 50mm (e.g., KHC model), suitable for operations in low-profile spaces.

　　Maintenance-Free Bearings: Sealed, self-lubricating bearings require no lubrication during their lifetime (service life > 50,000 cycles).

　　Visual Management: Color coding (yellow/blue/red corresponds to different load levels) or laser-engraved QR codes allow for easy access to specifications and maintenance records.

　　5. Efficiency Advantages

　　Easy Installation: No specialized tools are required, and replacement can be completed by one person in less than 10 seconds (e.g., the European C-type hook's quick-release design).

　　Energy Savings: Lightweight design reduces crane motor power consumption, reducing electricity costs by 10%-15% over long-term use.

　　6. Typical Application Scenarios

　　Warehousing and Logistics: Used in conjunction with lightweight jib cranes to handle pallets and packaging boxes (loads of 1-3 tons).

　　Automotive Repair: Used for engine lifting and body flipping (with 360° rotation).

　　Production Line: Assembly stations frequently handle small components (up to 2-3 times per minute). Weihua's lightweight crane hooks are designed for efficient handling, weighing only one-third of traditional hooks without sacrificing strength! Whether you're lifting quickly in a workshop or working frequently in a warehouse, they save you both effort and energy, and come with a worry-free 10-year warranty.

　　Weihua Heavy Machinery Co., Ltd. was founded in 1988. It is a large-scale equipment manufacturing enterprise mainly engaged in the development of bridge and gantry cranes, port machinery, electric hoists, reducers, bulk material conveying equipment and other products.

　　Weihua has won more than 500 honorary titles such as "National Technology Innovation Demonstration Enterprise", "National Torch Program Key High-tech Enterprise", "National Certified Enterprise Technology Center", "National Quality Benchmark", "National Green Factory", and "National Industrial Design Center".

　　Weihua has 10 series and more than 200 categories of crane production and manufacturing qualifications. The leading products are widely used in machinery, metallurgy, mining, electricity, railways, ports, petroleum, chemical and other industries, serving national key projects such as West-East Gas Transmission, South-to-North Water Diversion, Olympic Projects, Hangzhou Bay Cross-sea Bridge, and thousands of large enterprises such as China Coal, China Shenhua, Sinopec, China Petroleum, Baowu Steel, etc., and are exported to more than 170 countries and regions such as Thailand, Malaysia, and Australia.

　　Weihua has 33 national and provincial R&D platforms, and a scientific research team of more than 1,200 people led by Zhang Tiegang and Ma Yushan, academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. It has successively undertaken 7 major national projects. The independently developed electrical anti-sway control technology is internationally leading. The 400-meter ultra-high winch has set a world record for the maximum lifting height. The AICrane intelligent control system has created a real crane robot. The new Chinese-style crane has redefined the concept of lifting and promoted the continuous iteration and update of China's lifting technology! Create Weihua international brand and promote the Chinese national industry. Henan Weihua is committed to becoming a global leading material handling equipment manufacturer and system solution provider, and contributing a world-class brand to the high-end equipment manufacturing industry.
