These auto release hooks are ideal for lifting loads that might be inaccessible.
Not all loads can be accessed easily.

So how does the crane pick them up? Auto release hooks are the perfect solution.
Warehouse lifting equipment is a vital part of day-to-day operations in a warehouse environment.
Warehouses are typically used to store raw materials, goods and machinery. Bulky items are commonplace, so heavy lifting is often par for the course. This means that high-quality lifting and handling equipment is a must!
