Gunnebo 9/32" (1/4") - 5/16" OKE-7/8-10 Grade 100 Eye Foundry Hook - 5700 lbs WLL

Gunnebo OKE Foundry Hook with Eye – Open Throat. Fast Connection. Foundry-Grade Tough.

When speed of connection is as critical as strength of hold, the Gunnebo OKE Foundry Hook delivers. Engineered for foundry, rigging, and general lifting applications where loads need to be engaged and released quickly, the OKE's large open throat allows fast, efficient hook engagement with lifting points, rings, and hardware — without the fumbling and alignment challenges that tighter-throat hooks create in hot, gloved, or fast-paced working environments.

Open by Design — Not a Safety Compromise

The OKE is a latch-free, open-style hook by deliberate design — the standard configuration for foundry hooks where rapid load engagement and release are operational requirements. This is not a missing feature; it is the correct tool for applications where a safety latch would impede workflow without adding meaningful protection. Latch kits are not intended for use with the OKE, and the hook should be specified accordingly for appropriate applications.

The forged eye connection provides a strong, stable attachment point to Grade 100 or Grade 80 chain assemblies and compatible fittings — no intermediate links required. Built from forged alloy steel, precision heat-treated for strength and toughness, rated to a 4:1 design factor, and certified to EN 1677:2008 (+25% WLL) and ASTM A952/A952M, the OKE brings Gunnebo's premium manufacturing standards to one of rigging's most demanding hook applications.
