FORGED HOOKS

Miller hooks are produced in accordance with the following DIN standards:
DIN 15400- Lifting hooks, materials, mechanical properties, lifting capacity, stresses
DIN 15401- Single hooks
DIN 15402- Rams horn hooks (double hooks) with and without bottom hole
DIN is the German Institute for Standardization (Deutsches Institut fr Normung)
and has been based in Berlin since 1917. DIN has historically developed the
detailed and exacting standards used in German engineering and is the body that
represents Germany in international standards organizations.

Hooks feature markings of fixed distances (y

dimension) which allow confirmation that no
deformation has occurred in use, under testing, etc.
This dimension is a detail of the DIN requirement.
Hooks are identified by hook number and material.
Each hook number maintains identical dimensions
across a number of raw materials and has varying
load capacity depending on the material used.
Hooks are forged and heat treated for optimal
strength and toughness properties.
Our hook forgings are available in three increasingly stronger ferrous materials:
DIN class P, fine-grained carbon steel. St-E355/St-E420, similar to ASTMA573 Gr. 65
DIN class T , alloy steel 34CrMo4-34CrNiMo6, similar to SAE 4135/4340
DIN class V, super alloy steel, 34CrNiMo6-30CrNiMo8, similar to SAE 4340/4337
In the following selection tables, three working load limits are indicated for each hook number
depending on the material selected. Hook forgings have a design safety factor of 5. Safety latches
are included.
Miller also offers hook machining with matching nut for your particular application from our
stock of DIN hooks or from the hook manufacturer of your choice.
Custom hook forgings and other solid cylindrical forgings are also available as specials. DIN hooks
are also available upon request to meet specific standards, e.g. API, ABS, DNV.
Longer shanks are available (dimension B, +150 to +200 mm).

FORGED HOOKS- OPEN FORGED EYE HOOK

Heavy Duty Eye
Hooks for
Shackles
Miller Heavy Duty Eye Hooks
are specifically intended for use
with shackles or other pin-type
connections. Based also the
DIN norms, they are forged
from the strongest DIN "V"
material class (see above) and
carry a 5:1 design safety factor
and a positive locking latch.
Adaptable for ROV (Remotely
Operated Vehicles) use, these
eye hooks fit standard shackles
and also are available in
customized versions.
Deformation indicators are also
included on these heavy duty
models.
