National Mfg N222-869 Forged Hook 5/8x3-1/2 Zinc Fixed Eye

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N222-869 is a zinc-plated forged steel hook with a round fixed eye, built for demanding attachment and rigging tasks. Forged steel construction delivers exceptional tensile strength compared to cast alternatives, making this hook suitable where load security matters. The spring snap mechanism allows quick attachment and release without tools. At 5/8 inch wire diameter and 3-1/2 inches in overall length, this hook is sized for medium-duty industrial and agricultural applications. The zinc finish provides corrosion resistance for outdoor and wet-environment use. Each package contains 5 hooks sold as loose boxed units.

This hook is designed for industrial, farm, and recreational applications where a reliable, quick-attach connection point is needed. Typical uses include securing loads on trailers, attaching equipment to chains or cables on agricultural machinery, anchoring tie-down systems, and general rigging tasks in maintenance and farm settings. The round fixed eye allows direct connection to bolts, links, or anchor points without additional hardware in most configurations. This hardware is installed by maintenance professionals, riggers, farm operators, and experienced tradespeople working with light-to-medium load-bearing connections.

Installation Notes

Always verify the load rating of all connected hardware before use and never exceed the rated working load of the weakest component in the assembly. Inspect the spring snap and hook body for deformation, cracks, or corrosion before each use. Ensure the fixed eye is fully seated on its anchor point and the spring snap is fully closed before applying load. Installation and rigging should follow applicable ASME B30 or OSHA standards for the specific application.
