Cost Effective Overhead Crane C-Hooks for Steel Coil Lifting and Container Loading and Unloading

Crane C hooks are primarily used for handling steel coils, aluminum coils, copper coils, wire reels and some non-metal coils such as fiber optic or rope cabling, and paper rolls in the papermaking industry. It also used for loading steel pipes, steel tubes, and slabs into container.

They are easy to maintain and simple to use, greatly enhancing work efficiency. Typically made from high-strength alloy steel, they are lightweight yet sturdy and durable, ensuring safe, convenient, and efficient lifting operations. They are usually attached to an overhead crane or hoisting device to aid the lift, so they are also called overhead coil hooks or overhead crane C hook.

Types Of Crane C Hooks

Type 1: Heavy Duty C Hooks (box beam)

This C type hook is mainly composed of spreader and counterweight iron, the cross-section is box-type structure, the counterweight iron plays the role of adjusting the balance of the spreader, so that the center of gravity of the spreader and the lifted object is in a line.

The guide handle makes the C type coil lifting hook easy to maneuver. The tapered lower load arm allows easy access to the coil and minimizes coil damage.

Type 2: Single Coil C Hooks

This C hook for coil lifting is mainly composed of spreader and counterweight iron, the cross-section is single-plate structure, the counterweight iron plays the role of adjusting the balance of the spreader, so that the center of gravity of the spreader and the lifted object is in a line.

The guide handle makes the C type steel coil lifting hooks easy to maneuver. Tapered lower load arm allows easy access to the coil and reduces coil damage. Corner radii reduce stress concentrations in critical areas without disturbing the object being lifted.

Crane C-hook Applications

Crane C-hooks are essential lifting tools in workplaces that use horizontal steel coils, such as steel mills, cold-rolled sheet production and processing enterprises, and the warehouses and logistics departments of metallurgical industry companies. Crane C-hooks are commonly used for lifting steel coils, aluminum coils, copper coils, and wire reels.

Crane C-hooks are not only suitable for lifting steel or metal coils. They are also adaptable to other fields, such as:

  • Handling of pipe sections: large metal pipelines
  • Non-metal coils: fiber optic or rope cabling, paper rolls in the papermaking industry
  • Loading and unloading of goods inside containers
