Product Description
The Caldwell Double Hook Beam with Swivel Hooks is a below-the-hook lifting accessory designed to convert a single crane hook connection into two independent lower attachment points, enabling two-point lifting of loads that require distributed support or simultaneous handling of two separate loads from a single crane hook. The beam is fitted with two swivel hooks that allow each lower hook to rotate freely and self-align with the rigging hardware or load attachment points, reducing torsional stress on the rigging assembly and accommodating minor variations in load geometry or attachment point alignment.
The double hook beam is well suited for applications where a single spreader bar or lifting beam is not required but two independent lower hook points are needed, such as lifting long or wide loads with two sling legs, handling two separate loads simultaneously from one crane hook, or providing two attachment points for loads with widely spaced lifting lugs or eyes. The swivel hooks at each lower attachment point improve rigging flexibility and allow the rigger to connect to load attachment points that may not be perfectly aligned with the beam axis.
As a Caldwell product, this double hook beam is built to the dimensional and performance standards associated with the Caldwell line of below-the-hook lifting devices. It should be used only within its rated working load limit and operated in accordance with Caldwell's specifications and applicable below-the-hook lifting device standards including ASME B30.20.
Material: Steel alloy
Compatible With: Overhead crane and hoist systems rated to meet or exceed the double hook beam working load limit Slings, shackles, and rigging hardware rated to meet or exceed the working load limit Loads with two attachment points compatible with the swivel hook size and geometry
Uses: Two-point lifting of long or wide loads requiring distributed support Simultaneous handling of two separate loads from a single crane hook Lifting loads with two widely spaced attachment points such as lifting lugs or eyes Applications requiring independent lower hook alignment through swivel hook rotation
Key Features: Two swivel hooks provide independent lower attachment points with free rotation for self-alignment Converts single crane hook connection into two lower attachment points Swivel hooks reduce torsional stress and accommodate minor load geometry variations Improves rigging flexibility for loads with varied or offset attachment point geometry Built to Caldwell's below-the-hook lifting device standards
Note: Specifications including working load limit, hook size, beam length, and attachment hardware details should be confirmed against the official Caldwell product catalog or manufacturer documentation prior to ordering. The double hook beam must only be used within its rated working load limit and operated in full accordance with Caldwell's instructions and applicable lifting device safety standards.
