Bullard BL-K Golden Gate Shank Hook - #16 - 33 Ton - Long Length

Product Description

The Bullard BL-K Golden Gate Shank Hook is an ultra-heavy-duty rigging hook engineered for the most demanding high-capacity lifting and material handling applications where both maximum load rating and an extended hook body length are required. Rated at 33 ton working load limit, this #16 long length shank hook is part of the BL-K Golden Gate series, a line of rigging hardware recognized in the North American lifting industry for its strength and reliability across industrial, construction, and marine applications. The long length configuration provides additional hook body depth compared to standard length equivalents, accommodating rigging arrangements where greater clearance between the shank attachment point and the hook throat is necessary for proper load geometry or heavy-duty block and tackle assembly configuration.

At 33 ton working load limit, this hook is among the highest-capacity shank hooks in the Golden Gate series, making it suitable for the most demanding heavy lift operations encountered in offshore, shipbuilding, heavy construction, and large-scale industrial applications. Shank hooks of this type are commonly used as the upper connection point in heavy-duty block and tackle assemblies, crane load lines, and hoist rigging where a fixed, non-swiveling hook attachment to a structural anchor or equipment is required. The #16 designation refers to the hook size classification within the manufacturer's product series, corresponding to the hook's dimensional specifications and working load limit rating.

The BL-K Golden Gate series shank hooks are manufactured to meet the requirements of the most demanding industrial rigging applications where consistent performance, load rating compliance, and traceability are essential. The long length shank design allows the hook to be secured to a fixed anchor point, beam, or structural member, providing a stable and reliable rigging attachment point for the heaviest lift operations.

Note: Always verify the working load limit of all rigging components in the system prior to use. Never exceed the rated WLL of any component. Inspect hooks prior to each use for cracks, deformation, wear, and latch function. Follow all applicable rigging standards and manufacturer guidelines for safe use and retirement criteria.
