Applications

This ANSI-certified scaffold hook is the trusted choice for professionals in:

• Scaffolding fall protection systems
• Construction safety on scaffolding platforms
• Industrial scaffolding and maintenance work
• Horizontal lifeline systems
• Structural steel and beam connections
• Bridge construction and maintenance
• High-rise building construction
• Shipyard and marine construction
• Any application requiring secure attachment to tubes or structural members

Specialized Scaffold Hook Design

Unlike standard snap hooks, this scaffold hook is specifically designed for scaffolding applications. The large gate opening easily accommodates scaffolding tubes, horizontal lifelines, and structural members that would be too large for conventional hooks. The hook shape is optimized to securely grab round tubes and prevent sliding or rotation, making it ideal for scaffolding environments where workers need reliable fall protection.

Twist Lock Self-Locking Mechanism

The twist lock mechanism provides a unique approach to gate security. Instead of a double-action gate that requires two separate movements, the twist lock uses a rotating collar that must be twisted to unlock before the gate can be opened. This design provides excellent security against accidental opening while being intuitive to operate with gloves. Once closed, the gate automatically locks, and the twist collar must be deliberately rotated to unlock it.

Captive Pin Advantage

The captive pin design is a critical safety feature that prevents the gate pin from being lost or separated from the hook. In traditional designs, if a pin is lost, the hook becomes unusable or unsafe. With the captive pin design, the pin remains permanently attached to the hook body, ensuring the gate mechanism is always complete and functional. This is especially important in busy construction environments where small parts can easily be misplaced.

50kN Breaking Strength for Maximum Safety

With an impressive 50kN (11,240 lb) minimum breaking strength, this scaffold hook is built for the heaviest-duty applications. The exceptional strength rating provides a significant safety margin for fall protection, rigging, and material handling on scaffolding. Whether you're working on high-rise construction, industrial maintenance, or bridge projects, the 50kN capacity delivers confidence and reliability.

Large Gate Opening for Scaffolding

The large gate opening is specifically sized to fit over standard scaffolding tubes and pipes. This makes it easy to connect and disconnect from scaffolding structures without struggling with undersized openings. The hook design ensures a secure grip on round tubes, preventing the hook from sliding along the tube or rotating under load.

Built for Construction Environments

Scaffolding work presents unique challenges including exposure to weather, construction debris, and constant connecting and disconnecting. This scaffold hook is engineered to handle these conditions with corrosion-resistant coating, robust forged steel construction, and a twist lock mechanism that continues to function reliably even in dusty or dirty conditions.

ANSI Certification You Can Trust

ANSI certification means this scaffold hook has been independently tested and verified to meet rigorous American safety standards for fall protection connectors. When you're working on scaffolding at height, ANSI certification provides the assurance that your equipment has been proven to perform when it matters most.

Why Choose a Scaffold Hook?

Standard snap hooks and carabiners often have gate openings that are too small for scaffolding tubes and may not provide secure attachment to round structural members. A specialized scaffold hook is designed specifically for these applications, with a larger opening, optimized hook shape, and robust construction that makes it the right tool for scaffolding fall protection.

ProClimb Quality

ProClimb is committed to manufacturing professional-grade safety equipment that meets the highest standards of quality and reliability. When you choose ProClimb, you're choosing equipment trusted by scaffolding professionals and construction workers who demand the best.

Important Safety Information: This scaffold hook is designed for use in fall protection systems on scaffolding and must be used in accordance with manufacturer instructions, ANSI standards, and OSHA regulations. Always inspect before each use, paying special attention to the twist lock mechanism and captive pin. Retire from service if any damage, excessive wear, corrosion, or deformation is observed. Ensure proper training in scaffolding fall protection systems before use.
