EOT Crane Hook

Engineered for Performance and Safety

• Premium Materials & Forging: Weihua EOT crane hooks are precision-forged from high-tensile, low-alloy steel (typically conforming to standards like DIN 15401, FEM 1.001, or ASME B30.10). This forging process ensures superior grain structure, eliminating internal defects and providing exceptional strength-to-weight ratio.

• Unmatched Load Capacity: Available in capacities ranging from 1 ton to over 500 tons, Weihua offers the perfect EOT crane hook for your specific lifting needs. Each hook is rigorously designed and tested to handle its rated capacity safely, with ample safety factors built-in.

• Precision Machining: Critical surfaces, especially the load-bearing throat and shank, undergo precise machining. This guarantees smooth operation, optimal contact with lifting accessories (like shackles), and minimizes wear.

• Enhanced Safety Features:

  • Safety Latches: Robust, spring-loaded safety latches are standard to prevent accidental disengagement of the load from the EOT crane hook.
  • Hook Rotation: Many models feature low-friction swivel bearings or bushings, allowing the crane hook (and load) to rotate freely, reducing wire rope twisting and improving maneuverability.
  • Fatigue-Rated Design: crane hooks are engineered to withstand millions of loading cycles, crucial for high-duty EOT cranes in factories, warehouses, and foundries.

Designed for Seamless Integration & Longevity

• Standard Compliance: Weihua EOT crane hooks are manufactured to meet or exceed international standards (FEM, DIN, ISO, ASME, GB), ensuring global compatibility and regulatory acceptance.

  • Rigorous Testing: Every hook undergoes 100% non-destructive testing (NDT – Magnetic Particle and/or Dye Penetrant Inspection) and proof load testing to verify integrity far beyond its working load limit.

• Surface Protection: Advanced surface treatments, such as shot blasting followed by high-quality painting, hot-dip galvanizing, or specialized coatings, provide superior corrosion resistance, extending the service life significantly even in harsh environments like ports, steel mills, or chemical plants.

• Optimized Geometry: The hook profile is carefully designed for maximum strength and minimum weight, reducing the overall deadweight on your EOT crane while maximizing lifting efficiency. Smooth contours minimize stress concentrations and wire rope abrasion.

• Customization: Weihua understands diverse needs. EOT crane hooks can be customized regarding capacity, throat opening, shank length, rotation type, lifting point configuration, and special coatings.
