KWB Grade 100 Swivel Self-Locking Hook

The KWB Grade 100 Swivel Self-Locking Hook is engineered for demanding overhead lifting and rigging applications where both load security and proper load alignment are critical. Manufactured by KWB, a Pewag company, this premium European-made Grade 100 fitting combines a durable self-locking mechanism with a swivel design that helps the hook align naturally with the load, reducing chain twisting and binding during setup.

The advanced self-locking mechanism automatically closes and locks when a load is applied, providing a higher level of security than traditional stamped safety latches. The swivel feature allows the hook to position itself correctly before lifting, though it is not designed to rotate while under load. Finished in KWB's distinctive signal violet coating, this hook is easily identifiable as a Grade 100 lifting component in the field.
