Economical and Safe Lifting with Below the Hook and Custom Lifting Devices

Below the hook lifting devices are perhaps the most commonly used lifting equipment today. Also known as grabs, these devices are attached to the regular hook of the hoist or crane and serve their function without the need of any other connection to power or control. Over the years, improvements have been made to the design of below the hook lifting devicesand today, these can be classified into the following three categories based on their construction:

Curved or Straight Beam — Examples include C-hooks, overbalance hooks, lifting beams

Simple Link — Examples include tongs and lifting clamps
