TECHNICAL DATA SHEET - C-HOOKS
Bushman Equipment C-hook coil grabs are engineered to meet the specific requirements of the customer’s operating environment. Featuring unitized construction for strength, durability and safety, Bushman offers a variety of c-hook configurations to permit greatest utility. Features of the basic Bushman c-hook line include:

  • Unitized Construction — only the bail, counterweight and curved plate are welded to the main burnout.
  • Tapered Lower Carrying Arm — facilitates entry into coil ID.
  • Beveled Top Edge On Carrying Arms — standard on hooks under 20,000 lb. capacity.
  • Curved Coil Support Saddles — standard on hooks 20,000 lb. capacity and greater.
  • Each C-hook is custom engineered to meet the specific requirements for load configuration, weight, lifting area and headroom.

All Bushman C-hooks are designed and manufactured in accordance with ASME Standard B30.20.

This technical sheet has been prepared to help the customer in specifying the ideal C-hook for the particular application. Please contact our factory sales/engineering staff for additional assistance and quotations.

MODEL 610 C-HOOK

The model 610 C-hook coil grab is similar in construction to the model 624 (shown below).

The lifting bail is turned 90° and burned from the same piece of plate as the hook, making it an integral part of the c-hook. The standard “H” dimension on the model 610 is 20 inches. For variations in any dimension, please consult the factory with your application.

MODEL 624 C-HOOK

This Bushman Equipment c-hook has a lower member length (“L” dimension) which equals the maximum coil

width. The full length support feature increases the amount of surface area in contact with the coil, minimizing the potential for damage to the inner wraps of lighter gauge coil stock.

For capacities and dimensions not shown, please consult factory.

Note: “B” dimension is equal to 1/2 the width of the widest coil plus 1/2 inch.


C-HOOK OVERVIEW

MODEL 624-SL C-HOOK

This c-hook is designed for close stacking by shortening the distance from pick-up point (center of gravity) to the end of hook. Short lifting arm permits handling all coil widths within operating range (widest to narrowest) without the lifting arm extending beyond outer edge of coil.

The reduced overall width of this style of c-hook lifter can help decrease aisle space requirements, increasing storage capacity.

For capacities and dimensions not shown, please consult factory.

STORAGE STAND

 Because C-hooks are large and heavy, they can cause personal injury or property damage if they fall over. Each C-hook should be stored in an upright position on a stand specifically designed for its size, shape and weight.
