50 Ton crane hook

Engineered for demanding industrial lifting, the WeiHua 50 Ton Crane Hook stands as a critical component in your material handling arsenal. Designed and manufactured to exacting standards, this hook embodies WeiHua’s commitment to safety, durability, and peak performance under extreme loads.

Core Specifications & Design:

• Safe Working Load (SWL): 50 Metric Tons (50,000 kg) – Engineered with a significant safety factor exceeding industry norms (typically ≥ 5:1).

• Construction: Forged from ultra-high-strength alloy steel (e.g., Grade 100 or equivalent), ensuring exceptional toughness, resistance to deformation, and fatigue life.

• Hook Design: Precision-forged single hook profile optimized for maximum strength-to-weight ratio and smooth engagement with rigging hardware (shackles, slings). The throat opening and depth are carefully calculated for 50-ton capacity.

• Shank: Robust threaded shank designed for secure connection to the crane’s hook block or lifting mechanism. Threads are precision-cut for perfect engagement and load distribution.

• Safety Latch: Equipped with a heavy-duty, spring-loaded crane hook safety latch as standard. This critical feature prevents accidental disengagement of the load sling or chain, enhancing operational safety. The latch mechanism is designed for reliable function even in harsh environments.

• Rotation: Many WeiHua 50-ton hooks feature integrated thrust bearings, allowing the hook body to rotate smoothly under load (360° rotation). This minimizes wire rope twisting and facilitates precise load positioning.

Key Features & Advantages:

1. Uncompromising Safety: Built to rigorous international standards (ISO 4301, FEM 1.001, ASME B30.10), incorporating a substantial safety factor. Mandatory safety latch included.

2. Exceptional Durability: Forged alloy steel construction offers superior resistance to impact, abrasion, and deformation compared to lower-grade materials or casting. Built to withstand years of rigorous service.

3. High Load Stability: The precision-engineered geometry ensures stable load suspension, minimizing load swing and enhancing control during lifting and lowering operations.

4. Smooth Operation: Integrated rotation bearings (where applicable) ensure effortless swiveling, reducing stress on rigging and wire ropes, and improving operator control.

5. Low Maintenance: Robust design and high-quality materials minimize wear and tear. Sealed bearings (if rotation is included) require minimal lubrication.

6. Traceability & Quality Assurance: Each WeiHua 50-ton hook undergoes stringent Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) like Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) or Ultrasonic Testing (UT). Full material certification and traceability are provided.

7. Corrosion Resistance: Standard finish is often a durable industrial paint. Optional hot-dip galvanizing is available for enhanced corrosion protection in demanding environments like ports, chemical plants, or offshore applications.
