Forklift Hook Attachment for Suspended Lifting
The Forklift Hook Attachment is designed to give forklift operators a quick and practical way to lift suitable suspended loads using their existing forklift truck. Available in 1000kg, 2500kg and 5000kg capacities, it provides a secure fork-mounted lifting point for use with compatible lifting slings, lifting shackles and other lifting accessories.
As part of our wider range of forklift attachments, this forklift lifting hook is ideal for warehouses, factories, workshops, construction sites and yards where loads need to be lifted, positioned or moved using a forklift rather than a fixed crane or gantry system.
Converts Your Forklift into a Practical Lifting Point
This fork-mounted hook attachment allows a forklift truck to be used as a mobile lifting point for suitable suspended loads. The unit slides over the forks through the fork pockets and is then secured in position using thumb screws, helping to create a controlled lifting point underneath the forklift forks.
It is a useful solution for handling awkward loads, machinery, fabrications, bagged goods, stillages, components and other items that may be difficult to lift directly on the forks. For customers looking specifically for fork-mounted lifting solutions, this product also sits within our forklift jibs and hooks range.
1000kg, 2500kg and 5000kg Capacity Options
This Forklift Hook Attachment is available in three capacity options to suit different lifting requirements. The 1000kg model is a compact option for lighter lifting tasks, while the 2500kg and 5000kg models are designed for heavier-duty applications where greater lifting capacity is required.
The models available are:
- FLH10 / MK10 – 1000kg capacity, 250mm fork pocket centres, 14kg weight
- FLH25 / MK25 – 2500kg capacity, 450mm fork pocket centres, 25kg weight
- FLH50 / MK50 – 5000kg capacity, 450mm fork pocket centres, 49kg weight
Complete with Swivel Hook and Galvanised Shackle
Each forklift hook attachment is supplied complete with a red swivel hook with safety catch and a galvanised Dee shackle with safety pin and bolt. The swivel hook helps the lifting connection align more naturally with the load, while the safety catch helps retain the lifting accessory in the hook during use.
For many applications, customers use this attachment with suitable lifting slings and shackles. A shackle can be useful between the hook and sling arrangement where a larger, more practical connection point is required.
Adjustable Along the Forks
The attachment is designed to be adjustable along the length of the forklift forks, allowing the operator to position the lifting point to suit the load and lifting arrangement. Once the attachment is in the required position, the thumb screws should be tightened securely underneath the forks before use.
A secondary tether is always recommended for additional protection. Operators should also carry out a pre-use inspection before lifting and follow the supplied user instructions.
Heavy-Duty Construction for Industrial Use
This forklift hook attachment is manufactured with solid welded construction and a heavy-duty painted finish to help protect the unit during regular industrial use. The galvanised clamping screws and galvanised shackle also help improve durability in busy workplace environments.
It is designed for professional users who need a straightforward, robust and easy-to-fit forklift lifting attachment that can be kept available for everyday lifting tasks.
Certified Forklift Lifting Attachment
Each Forklift Hook Attachment is supplied with UKCA and CE Declarations of Conformity and conforms to the Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. User instructions are also supplied as standard.
The attachment is backed by a 5 year warranty, giving you added confidence when choosing LES forklift lifting equipment for professional use.
Choosing the Right Forklift Attachment
This forklift hook attachment is best suited to suspended lifting applications where a central hook point is required beneath the forks. If you need to lift and handle drums, our forklift drum attachments may be more suitable.
