Product information
William Hackett L4 lever hoist - with shipyard hook
Lever hoist equipped with shipyard hook, catering to shipyard, fabrication, and upset welding environments
The William Hackett L4 lever hoist, equipped with shipyard hooks, offers working load limits of 1.6t and 3.2t. Certified for light loads at 2% of its rated capacity, it features twin pawls for enhanced safety and heavy-duty cast steel latches on its hooks. The hook housing allows for full inspection and is secured with socket head cap screws, hex head bolts, and nyloc locking nuts. Tested for fleeting or cross hauling applications up to 45°, it meets international standards with load chain compliance. Manufactured and proof tested in the U.K., it operates in a temperature range from -20°C to +120°C. Optional overload limiters are available, catering to shipyard, fabrication, and upset welding environments, offering durability and safety in various industrial applications.
Hooks on standard lever hoists are NOT constructed to load the hook tip against steel plate edges when used in shipyards, fabrication facilities and where pulling angle iron and upset welding are regular applications.
If the standard lever hoist top and bottom hooks are used in this way the hooks will need to be replaced due to deformation. A lever hoist is often used in operations where the hook tip needs loading to pull together objects which will increase the element of user risk and can ultimately cause the operator to damage the hoist.
To mitigate this issue William Hackett has introduced the option of shipyard hooks to the L4 lever hoist which are specifically designed to perform these types of operation. The William Hackett L4 lever hoist fitted with shipyard hooks allows the user to hook against plate edges meaning the hooks will not become deformed when used within the marked working load limit.
