A lifting device under the hook is a device that is not part of the hoist and can be connected to the load-bearing equipment of the hoist to pick up and release the load.

Examples:

• Lifting beams
• Coil hooks
• Gripper
• Loading forks
• Forklift parts

A lifting device under the hook is not approved for the transportation of persons! In this context, explicit reference is made to the accident prevention regulations DGUV R 109-017 and DGUV R 101-005 “Elevating personnel lifting devices”. Loads must be picked up and set down in such a way that unintentional falling over, falling apart, sliding or rolling of the load is avoided. Depending on the application, safety flaps, pins, clamps, toggles, protective cages, anti-slip coatings or similar are suitable for this purpose. Every connection point must therefore be secured. Exceptions apply, for example, to chains that cannot be unhooked when slack. Are you looking for a load handling attachment for your lifting operation?
