Parallel hook PG, with clevis
The Parallel hook PG, with clevis, helps you to precisely adjust and shorten sling chains in daily lifting operations. You can easily integrate it into existing chain slings and create a flexible, robust system for safe load guidance. As a shortening hook, it ensures efficient adjustments without interrupting the flow of work.
The PG parallel hook impresses with its compact design and stable clevis design, which enables quick assembly on the chain sling. The component is made of red painted grade 8 steel and is suitable for demanding working environments where reliability and material strength are crucial.
With its lifting capacity of 8,000 kg, the hook offers sufficient reserve capacity for common lifting and load positioning in everyday industrial applications. The inner length of 99 mm - measured from the clevis to the base of the hook - ensures that the chain is held securely and guided precisely in the load line.
The hook complies with the DIN EN 1677-1 standard and is suitable for nominal size 16 in chain quality class 8. This means that you can easily integrate it into existing sling chains without having to make any adjustments. Thanks to its design, it efficiently shortens chains of nominal size 8 and reliably withstands repeated load changes.
Weighing just 2.80 kg, the parallel hook remains easy to handle and supports ergonomic working, even with frequent rehanging or adjustment of the chain links.
You can use it in workshops, in the construction industry, in logistics or wherever sling chains need to be flexibly adapted to different lifting situations. The robust surface withstands mechanical loads and daily contact with the chain and load.
