Swivel Hook

Swivel hooks are commonly used hook components on industrial cranes. Weihua Crane manufactures and supplies a wide variety of swivel crane hooks. We sincerely welcome inquiries and purchases.

Description

  A swivel hook is a specialized lifting equipment accessory with a unique design and functionality, widely used in lifting operations requiring flexible rotation or adjustment of the load's direction. Weihua Hoisting's swivel hooks offer the following features:

  1. 360° Free Rotation

  The core feature is the hook's ability to rotate freely around the lifting point's axis (typically 360° without restriction), preventing twisting and tangling of the wire rope or chain during lifting, reducing wear and tear on the equipment.

  It is suitable for applications requiring frequent adjustment of the load's angle, such as assembly and workpiece flipping.

  2. High Load Capacity

  Made of high-strength alloy steel or specialized materials, it ensures high load capacity while rotating, typically covering loads ranging from light to heavy (e.g., several tons to hundreds of tons).

  Internal bearings (such as thrust bearings and roller bearings) ensure smooth rotation and uniform pressure.

  3. Safety and Reliability

  Anti-Hook Design: Some models feature a spring-loaded lock or safety tab to prevent the load from accidentally falling off.

  Overload Protection: Some advanced models feature an integrated overload alarm and automatically lock the rotation function when overloaded.

  Wear Resistance: The hook surface is hardened, and the bearings are sealed to prevent dust, extending service life.

  4. Reduced Torque Transmission

  The swivel hook effectively isolates torque transmission between the crane and the load, preventing equipment damage or load instability caused by wire rope twisting. It is particularly suitable for long-distance lifting or in windy environments.

  5. Flexible Adaptability

  It can be used with a variety of lifting tools (such as slings, chains, and wire ropes) and is commonly used in tower cranes, marine cranes, and construction machinery.

  Some models support manual rotation lock, allowing for precise positioning and securing the load's direction.

  6. Suitable for Special Environments

  Corrosion-Resistant Design: For use in corrosive environments such as marine and chemical industries, stainless steel or galvanized finishes are used.

  High-Temperature Version: The swivel hook, made of high-temperature-resistant materials, can be used in industries such as metallurgy and casting.

  7. Easy Maintenance

  The modular design facilitates disassembly and maintenance, and the bearings are typically lubricated (e.g., with oil filling holes), reducing the risk of long-term failure.

  Weihua Crane's swivel hooks, with their unique swivel function and safety design, significantly improve the efficiency and safety of lifting operations. They are essential tools in modern lifting operations. Customers are advised to select the model based on parameters such as load, rotation speed, and environmental conditions.
