Below-The-Hook Devices
Lifting tools, known as “Below-the-Hook” devices and end effectors, are designed to connect loads to overhead lifting equipment. They come into play when a load doesn’t offer a built-in lifting point or an attachment site for a standard hoist hook. You’ll often find them in operations involving plate, steel, glass, drum handling, lifting pipes and stones, and uniquely shaped loads.

Below Hook Lifting Devices & End Effecters
The below hook lifting device and end effecter helps with lifting and transferring loads when a single hook cannot be used or a lifting lug is not in place.
An end effecter generally attaches directly to a manipulator or manipulator control whereas a below-hook lifting device connects to a hook on a hoist or crane.
