Fork mounted hooks that turn a forklift or telehandler into a lifting tool for short duration lifts where a crane would be excessive. Fixed, adjustable and bridged versions from Invicta and Eichinger. For more reach, step up to a forklift jib.
Hooks come as eye, clevis, swivel and self-locking types. Self-locking hooks close automatically and cannot be knocked open, which matters where the load could shift or the hook is out of sight.
A safety latch stops the sling jumping the hook. Check the throat opening for stretch, which is the first sign of overload.
One that closes automatically and cannot be knocked open, suited to loads that may shift or hooks the operator cannot see.
