- Load securement, tie-downs, shortening chain on trucks and trailers
A clevis grab hook attaches to transport chain with a clevis pin, and its narrow throat is shaped to grip a chain link so the hook holds the chain at a fixed point. It is the standard hook for shortening and tensioning tie-down chains on trucks and trailers.
Typical Applications
Used with grade 70 transport chain for load securement: grabbing a chain link to shorten the assembly, attaching to anchor points on trailers and flatbeds, and building adjustable tie-down assemblies. A latch (slip) variant is available to help keep the hook in place. Match the hook size and grade to the chain it is used with.
Sizes and Ordering
Hooks are made in grade 43 and grade 70, sized by the chain they fit (1/4 in to 5/8 in). Working load limits per size for both grades are listed in the specifications on this page. Grade 43 hooks are for tie-down and towing, not for overhead lifting. Tell us the grade, the chain size and the quantity you need.
