Parallel Hook PG with Clevis

The Parallel Hook PG with clevis helps you adjust and shorten chain slings with precision during daily lifting operations. You can integrate it easily into existing chain sling assemblies, creating a flexible and robust system for safe load handling. As a shortening hook, it enables efficient adjustments without interrupting your workflow.

The Parallel Hook PG features a compact design and a stable clevis construction that allows for quick installation on the chain sling. The component is made of red-coated Grade 8 steel and is designed for demanding work environments where reliability and material strength are essential.

With a load capacity of 1,120 kg, the hook offers sufficient reserve for common lifting and load‑positioning tasks in industrial applications. The internal length of 45 mm – measured from the clevis to the hook base – ensures secure chain seating and precise guidance within the load strand.

The hook complies with DIN EN 1677‑1 and fits size 6 chains in Grade 8. This allows seamless integration into existing chain sling setups without modification. Its geometry enables efficient shortening of size‑8 chains and maintains stability even under frequent load shifts.

Weighing only 0.20 kg, the parallel hook remains easy to handle and supports ergonomic working, even during frequent repositioning or adjusting of chain links.

You can use it in workshops, construction environments, logistics operations, or anywhere chain slings need to be adapted flexibly to various lifting conditions. Its durable surface withstands mechanical stress and daily contact with chain and load.
