For more than a century, Crosby has been the industry leader in producing, manufacturing, and selling high-end rigging and lifting equipment. The workers using this equipment must have complete confidence in the types of hooks, shackles, and any other items they are using on the job. Manufacturing equipment that can be trusted is the number goal for The Crosby Group. For the best industry hooks in the business, Crosby’s reputation speaks for itself.

Our line of hooks includes shank hooks, eye hooks, barrel hooks, and more. Crosby is known for providing quality and long-lasting products. All of our hooks meet the design factor requirements.

All hooks undergo our special heat treatment process, which ensures that a hook will deform prior to failure. All hooks are quench and tempered and are enhanced for greater toughness at all temperatures.

All Crosby hooks are put through an intensity test, which examines the hardness, tensile, and strength of each product. We only purchases special bar forging quality steel, which must reach specific standards. This includes cleanliness and hardenability. Each batch of hooks undergoes this testing process and is traceable by the PIC (Product Identification Code). This enables our team to provide the results for each batch that has been made if required.

All hooks come with hook indicators, or markings forged into the product. Crosby hooks have two strategically placed marks that allow for measurement. This helps the rigger determine if the opening has widened or changed and enables him to be made aware of overload or abuse of the product. These markings allow for the worker to know if it is time to remove the hook from service. Using faulty equipment can bring harm to the worker and others if not checked regularly.

For those looking for tested and trusted hooks, Crosby provides a vast variety for any and all lifting applications.
