Product Description
The Pewag 253600 is a replacement torsion spring designed for use with Pewag FHX-V hooks in sizes 4 through 6. The torsion spring is a critical functional component of the FHX-V hook assembly, providing the return force that keeps the safety latch or closing mechanism engaged under normal operating conditions. Maintaining a properly functioning spring is essential to the safe operation of the hook, as a worn or fatigued spring can result in reduced latch tension and increased risk of accidental load release during lifting and rigging operations.
The FHX-V is a Pewag forged hook designed for use in overhead lifting and rigging applications, and the torsion spring is sized and engineered specifically for the size 4-6 range within this hook family. Using an OEM replacement spring ensures correct spring rate, dimensional fit, and material specification, all of which are necessary to maintain the hook's rated performance and safety function. The torsion spring works in conjunction with the latch and pivot components of the hook assembly to provide consistent, reliable closure throughout the service life of the hook.
As a safety-critical replacement component, the 253600 torsion spring must be installed by qualified personnel in accordance with Pewag's assembly and maintenance guidelines. The spring must be inspected regularly for fatigue, deformation, corrosion, or loss of tension, and must be replaced immediately if any deficiency is identified. Only OEM Pewag replacement springs should be used to maintain the rated safety performance of the FHX-V hook assembly.
