20 Ton Crane Hook

Introducing the Weihua 20 Ton Forged Crane Hook: The critical link between your crane’s lifting mechanism and the load. Designed and manufactured to exacting international standards, the Weihua 20 Ton Crane Hook is built for demanding industrial applications where safety, durability, and performance are paramount. As a core component of Weihua’s renowned crane hook blocks or as a standalone replacement part, this hook delivers unwavering strength.

20 Ton Crane Hook Key Features & Benefits:

1. Exceptional Strength & Durability:

   • Premium Forged Alloy Steel: Manufactured from high-tensile strength alloy steel using precision forging processes. Forging aligns the grain structure, eliminating weak points and creating a hook superior in strength and fatigue resistance compared to cast alternatives.

   • 20 Ton Safe Working Load (SWL): Clearly marked and rigorously tested to reliably handle loads up to 20 metric tons (20,000 kg). Designed with a significant safety factor exceeding minimum industry requirements.

   • Superior Impact Resistance: The forged construction provides excellent toughness to withstand shock loading and harsh operating conditions.

2. Uncompromising Safety:

   • ASME B30.10 Compliant: Manufactured in strict accordance with ASME B30.10 (Hooks) standards, ensuring design, material, manufacturing, testing, and marking meet the highest safety benchmarks for North America and global markets.

   • Integrated Crane Hook Safety Latch (Standard or Optional): Features a robust, spring-loaded safety latch designed to prevent slings, chains, or fittings from accidentally disengaging from the hook throat during lifting operations. (Specify latch requirement).

   • Precision Machined Bearing Surfaces: The hook shank (eye) and saddle (load-bearing point) are precision machined for smooth interaction with shackles, bearings (in hook blocks), and lifting gear, reducing wear and ensuring proper load distribution.

   • Permanent Marking: Clearly and permanently marked with vital information: WEIHUA brand, Safe Working Load (SWL: 20 T), unique serial number, and relevant manufacturing/compliance marks (e.g., ASME).

3. Optimized Design for Performance:

   • Efficient Throat Opening: Designed with an optimal throat opening to accommodate common rigging hardware (shackles, links) and slings used for 20-ton lifts.

   • Smooth Contours: Precise shaping minimizes stress concentrations and reduces wear on slings.

   • Durable Finish: Typically supplied with a high-quality protective coating (e.g., painted, galvanized – specify if required) to resist corrosion in industrial environments.

4. Versatility & Compatibility:

   • Hook Block Integration: Designed as the core lifting point for Weihua 20-ton crane hook blocks (single or multi-sheave configurations).

   • Replacement Part: Ideal for replacing worn or damaged hooks on existing 20-ton crane systems, ensuring continued safety and compliance.

   • Customization Options: Available with various shank (eye) designs (e.g., clevis eye, plain bore) to suit specific hook block or application needs. Swivel crane hook options may also be available (inquire).

Why Choose the Weihua 20 Ton Crane Hook?

• Weihua Reputation: Backed by Weihua Group’s global reputation as a leading crane and hoist manufacturer known for quality and reliability.

• Rigorous Quality Control: Manufactured under strict quality management systems (ISO 9001 certified).

• Proven Safety: Adherence to ASME B30.10 and other international safety standards.

• Superior Forging: Delivers unmatched strength and longevity.

• Global Support: Supported by Weihua’s extensive international sales and service network.

Safety First!

• Never Exceed SWL: The 20 Ton SWL is the absolute maximum. Consider dynamic forces and the weight of rigging.

• Pre-Use Inspection: Visually inspect the hook BEFORE EVERY USE for cracks, deformation, excessive wear (especially at the saddle and shank), throat opening increase, latch function, and legible markings. Remove damaged hooks immediately.

• Professional Maintenance: Follow scheduled maintenance and inspection protocols as per ASME B30.10, OSHA, or local regulations. Keep inspection records.

• Proper Rigging: Ensure loads are correctly centered in the hook saddle and rigging cannot slip out. Always use the safety latch correctly.
