Built for 5/16 inch chain, the Machining & Welding 5/16 IN X 6 IN J-Hook Style A carries a 250 pound rating with a 6 inch hook length.

This style of hook is a common replacement part for chain slings and tie-down assemblies, letting you swap a worn or damaged hook without replacing the whole chain.

Forged from steel and heat treated for strength, the hook is built to standard chain hardware dimensions so it drops into existing assemblies.

Matching hook style, chain size, and capacity is important for safe rigging, and this hook is sized to do exactly that.

Equipment like this shows up across a wide range of industries, from steel fabrication and machine shops to warehousing, construction, and vehicle service centers. Anywhere crews need to move a load overhead in a controlled, repeatable way, a purpose-built lift beam or crane keeps the job safer and faster than improvised rigging. Once a facility standardizes on the right lifting equipment for its typical loads, operators spend less time rigging and more time actually getting work done.

As with any lifting equipment, never exceed the rated working load limit, and inspect slings, hooks, shackles, and connection points before every use. Confirm compatibility with your hoist, crane, or trolley system before placing an order, and follow your facility's rigging and lockout procedures for every lift. A few minutes spent checking hardware condition and load balance up front is far cheaper than dealing with a dropped or shifted load later, and it keeps your team's daily routine consistent from one job to the next.

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.

Add the Machining & Welding 5/16 IN X 6 IN J-Hook Style A to your spare parts bin for quick chain hook replacements.
