CAMPBELL
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about CAMPBELL from 3G Electric.
What is the difference between Campbell Grade 43 and Grade 70 slip hooks?
Campbell slip hooks are available in Grade 43 and Grade 70. Grade 43 hooks, such as MPN T9401424, have a working load limit of 2,600 lb and a zinc-silver finish. Grade 70 hooks, such as MPN T9504415, have a higher working load limit of 4,700 lb and a gold finish. Grade 70 is typically used for load securement where higher strength is required, while Grade 43 is common in general lifting and rigging. Both are made from carbon steel and feature a clevis design for attachment.
What chain sizes are compatible with Campbell lifting connecting links?
Campbell lifting connecting links are sized to match specific chain trade sizes. For example, MPN 5779225 is designed for 9/32 in chain, and MPN 5779245 is for 1/2 in chain. These links are Grade 100 and are used to join chain ends in overhead lifting and rigging. It is important to match the link's trade size to the chain's trade size to ensure proper fit and load capacity. Always verify the working load limit of the assembly.
What is the working load limit of the Campbell S-hook MPN 6108024?
The Campbell S-hook MPN 6108024 has a working load limit of 120 lb. It is made from zinc-plated carbon steel and measures 1 25/32 in overall length and 1 in overall width. This hook is intended for light-duty hanging, suspending, or connecting loads in maintenance and general rigging applications. It is not designed for overhead lifting of personnel or heavy loads. Always confirm the load weight and application before use.
Are Campbell slip hooks with latches suitable for overhead lifting?
Campbell slip hooks with latches, such as MPN T9504515 (Grade 70, 6,600 lb WLL), are designed for lifting and rigging applications. The latch helps prevent accidental disengagement of the load. However, suitability for overhead lifting depends on the specific application, load, and applicable safety regulations. These hooks are made from carbon steel with a clevis design and gold finish. Users should verify that the hook's working load limit and grade meet the requirements of the lifting plan and any relevant standards.
What finishes are available on Campbell rigging hardware?
Campbell rigging hardware is available with several finishes, including zinc-plated, zinc-silver, gold, and painted. For example, the S-hook MPN 6108024 is zinc-plated, while slip hooks MPN T9401424 and T9401524 have a zinc-silver finish. Grade 70 slip hooks MPN T9504415 and T9504515 have a gold finish. Connecting link MPN 5779245 is painted. These finishes provide varying levels of corrosion resistance and are often color-coded to indicate grade. Selection depends on the environment and compatibility with existing hardware.
