Built for foundry and heavy industrial rigging, the Machining & Welding 13/16 IN 2000 LB Short Reach Foundry offers a 6 inch reach at 2,000 pounds capacity.

Foundry hooks are built with extra reach to keep an operator's hands farther from hot metal, molds, or ladles during connection and release.

The hook shape is engineered specifically for foundry work, balancing reach and strength for hot, high-hazard rigging environments.

Extra hook reach is a simple design feature that adds real distance between an operator's hands and a hazard during connection and release.

Maintenance departments, fabrication shops, warehouses, and construction crews all rely on equipment in this category to handle lifts that come up again and again. Having the right beam or crane on hand means operators are not left rigging a load with mismatched slings or borrowed hardware, which keeps every lift consistent regardless of who is running it that day.

Pairing the right lifting equipment with proper technique keeps a shop's safety record intact. Inspect connection points regularly, respect the rated working load limit, and make sure every operator understands how the rigging is meant to be used before the first lift of the day. Small, consistent habits like these tend to matter more over time than any single piece of equipment, no matter how well it is built.

Properly rated hardware, stored and maintained correctly, tends to outlast the equipment it gets paired with. Building a simple habit of checking condition before each use costs very little time and pays off in fewer surprises when a piece of rigging hardware is actually under load.

The specifications below cover everything you need to check compatibility with your equipment.
