Eye Slip Hooks Details

When we are familiar with the product, we can find one among many suppliers that can provide better service and high-quality products. A good supplier will tell you more because he can do what he says.

What is Eye Slip Hooks

It is produced from a section of high-performance steel bar by heating, bending, die forging, deburring, finishing and surface treatment. It is designed to link the chain, wire rope, cable, etc. of the pulling facility and the pulling point of the pulled object such as chain, wire rope, cable.

What is Its Materials

Its materials are mainly alloy steel and carbon steel. These two materials need to be made into the same size, so they will show two performances. This performance has been mentioned in the specification table, you can browse it in detail.

Tips: Unscrupulous merchants will make a big fuss about raw materials: for example, using waste materials (without a material list, it is difficult to identify the material properties) will reduce costs but it will be difficult to guarantee the quality of the order. When purchasing, please make sure you can see the material list and see what raw materials are used, obtain the production video or ask the process supplier to live broadcast the production process.

What is Its Structure

It is forged in one time, but can be divided into two parts according to function: hooks eye and hooks body, which are the pulling device end and the pulled end respectively.

Hooks Eye:

It is a hole-shaped structure that is convenient for connecting links, wire ropes and cables to pass through. It is used to understand the tension facility end.

When using it, it is necessary to pay attention to the following: the diameter of the connecting links, wire ropes and cables needs to be smaller than the diameter of the hooks eye.

Hooks Body:

It is a hook-shaped structure with a larger inner cavity than the opening, which allows the chain to pass through and slide inside. We can use it to connect most objects within its load range.

What Are The Types of Eye Slip Hooks

It can be classified according to opening size, surface treatment, strength, material, etc.

According to Size:

Its common sizes are 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 7/16", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4". Choosing the right one requires considering the thickness of the chain.

According to Surface Treatment:

Common surfaces include electro-galvanizing, hot-dip galvanizing and powder coating. The main use environment needs to be considered.

According to Materials:

There are 2 types: high-performance carbon steel and high-performance alloy steel. You need to compare the table to choose.

According to the Intensity:

G30, G43, G70, G80, G100。

How it work：

It can be used in two main scenarios: traction and lifting, and can also be combined with other tools for bundling.

Step 1:

Before using, you need to consider whether the load capacity of eye slip hooks can meet the requirements. Its opening size needs to be slightly larger than the thickness of the steel bar of the chain.

Step 2:

Depending on the material of the link, there are two situations.

Linking closed ends:

Use connecting links to link the eyes of hooks and the closed loop at the end of the chain or wire rope.

Linking openable ends:

Directly link the ends to the eyes of hooks.

Step 3:

Two situations can be considered when using:

When the width of the chain is smaller than the width of the inner cavity, the entire chain can be placed in the inner cavity;

When the width of the chain is larger than the width of the inner cavity, it can be hooked on only one side of the chain link.

Production of Eye Slip Hooks:

It is forged from a single billet. It usually goes through the following steps:

1. Calculate the volume of each eye slip hooks and purchase steel rods of appropriate thickness;

2. Test the quality of raw materials and use them for order production if they pass the test;

3. The fully automatic sawing machine cuts the whole steel bar into specific lengths to make billets;

4. The electromagnetic induction tube heats the blank to a specific temperature;

5. Bend the blank into a specific arc;

6. The bent blank is placed into the hot section mold;

7. After the mold is closed, open it again to get the semi-finished product of eye slip hooks;

8. Use a punching die to cut off the flash;

9. After cooling, conduct strict sampling inspection to ensure that the products are qualified before finishing;

10. Finishing includes shot blasting, surface treatment, etc.

11. We will package the eye slip hooks according to your requirements. We can customize the packaging material and appearance.

12. Delivery and after-sales.

Note: The entire process can be automated, but it is only recommended when you need to purchase orders of hundreds of thousands of pieces, because adjusting the entire assembly line is very time-consuming. Small batch orders are more cost-effective when done manually.

Quality inspection of Eye Slip Hooks:

We have a fully equipped quality inspection center. Tensile testing machine, thickness gauge, hardness tester, electron microscope, photometer, vernier caliper, salt spray tester and other equipment and instruments can complete the inspection of various data and give a detailed inspection report under the operation of professional inspectors.

Raw Material Test:

We can use electron microscope to detect the internal structure of raw materials, photometer to detect the composition of materials. Some raw materials also need to be tested for mechanical properties.

Tensile force test:

We will use a tensile force of 4 times the safety factor to complete the load limit test. And provide test pictures, videos, etc.

Salt spray test:

At the request of the customer, we can strictly test the rust and corrosion resistance of Eye Slip Hooks.

Factories of Eye Slip Hooks

Our forging factory has more than a dozen forging machines that can start the production of Eye Slip Hooks at the same time to shorten its production cycle. The fully equipped quality inspection center can ensure that each batch of goods meets your quality requirements. The closely cooperated surface treatment factory can complete high-standard galvanizing and powder coating faster. You can click to enter the details page to fully understand.
