Camlok TCS Universal Turning Hooks

The TCS coil turning hooks are specifically designed to pick up coils of steel or banding material which are laying flat. Once the turning hook is positioned and the crane hook is raised, the coil automatically transfers from the horizontal position to the vertical position. This allows for easy transportation and also allows for loading onto machines or racking. To operate, place the hook into the coil centre, with the back of the lifting shoe touching the inside of the coil and the lifting sling vertical. Slowly hoist up until the coil rises from the ground. As the coil rises, traverse the crane back so that the coil pivots on the lower rear corner. Continue hoisting and traversing the crane until the coil is vertical. Take special care when the pivot point is below the cog of the coil, as the coil will topple back into the hook. If thin coils are lifted, then place the coil down on its edge and move the coil to the rear of the hook for transporting. Like all our Clamps and Hooks, these come CE marked and with certification.
