Grade 80 Eye Choke Hook ECK Type

No.502024

The Grade 80 Eye Choke Hook (ECK Type) is a heavy-duty, forged lifting component specifically designed for creating secure loop or choker slings. Its unique twisted eye profile makes it ideal for reeving applications while minimizing load slippage.

  • Twist Eye Design: Features an integrated twisted eye that naturally aligns the hook with the load, reducing torque and preventing the rigging from binding.
  • Choker Applications: Purpose-built for loop lifting and reeving, providing a highly secure grip when wrapping chains or ropes around a load.
  • Versatile Pairing: Easily connects to wire ropes and is frequently paired with an omega link to create highly efficient, adjustable lifting assemblies.
  • Grade 80 Strength: Manufactured from premium alloy steel, delivering exceptional wear resistance and a reliable 4:1 safety factor for demanding industrial lifts.

*Slides freely to tighten around the load

Product Features

  • Choker Hitch Specialist: Perfect for lifting loose bundles like logs, pipes, or timber. The hook slides freely along the sling body, naturally tightening the grip as the load is lifted.
  • Universal Connection: The Eye (Ring) design allows connection to Grade 80 Chain (via Hammerlock), Wire Rope thimbles, or Webbing Slings, making it a multi-purpose rigging component.
  • Secure Grip: The unique hook geometry ensures that once the load is lifted, the chain link or rope is trapped securely in the hook bowl to prevent slipping.
  • Forestry Ready: Forged from high-strength Grade 80 Alloy Steel to withstand shock loads and abrasion common in logging operations.

Grade 80 Chain Fittings

G-80 Alloy Fittings / Grade 80 Sling Components

Grade 80 Sling Components are the long-established industry standard for chain slings and heavy lifting. Fully compliant with international lifting regulations and designed for durability.

What Does “Grade 80” Mean?

  • High-strength Alloy Steel
  • Min breaking force ≈ 4 × WLL
  • Heat-treated (Quenched & Tempered)
  • Standard: EN 818-4 / EN 818-6
  • Marked “G80” or “8”

Common Grade 80 Components

1. Master Links

Used to connect the sling to a crane or hoist hook.

  • Master Link (ML)
  • Master Link Assembly (Multi-leg)
  • Pear-shaped master links

2. Hooks

End fittings for secure load attachment.

  • Clevis Self-Locking Hook
  • Eye Self-Locking Hook
  • Sling Hook with Safety Latch
  • Foundry Hook
  • Grab Hook (Shortening)

3. Connecting Links

Essential hardware to join chains or fittings.

  • Clevis Connecting Link
  • Hammerlock / Coupling Link
  • Repair Link (Special use only)

4. Chain & Adjusters

The core lifting medium and adjustment tools.

  • Grade 80 Alloy Chain (Marked G80)
  • Shortening Clutch
  • Swivel (Bearing/Non-bearing)
  • Lifting Rings

Typical Applications

  • Chain slings (1 to 4 legs)
  • Construction & Civil Works
  • Manufacturing & Workshops
  • Steel Fabrication
  • General Industrial Lifting

Identification Marks

  • Grade: G80 / 8
  • Manufacturer’s ID
  • Size or WLL (Working Load Limit)
  • Traceability Batch Code

Grade 80 vs. Grade 100

Feature Grade 80 Grade 100
Strength Level Standard Industry Standard +25% Higher
Component Size Larger Smaller (for same WLL)
Weight Heavier Lighter
Cost More Cost-Effective Higher

⚠️ Safety & Compatibility Notes

  • DO NOT mix Grade 80 components with other grades (G70, G100) in the same sling leg.
  • Always match Grade 80 chain with Grade 80 fittings.
  • Observe sling angle factors and WLL reductions during lifts.
  • Inspect regularly for: Wear (>10%), Cracks/Distortion, Corrosion, or Heat Damage.
