Coil handling equipment and coil lifting devices, commonly referred to as C hooks and coil lifters, are below the hook lifting devices that make lifting and handling large and small coils of any material extremely easy and efficient. All our coil handling equipment is engineered with design flexibility to meet the specific requirements of any operating environment. C Hooks consist of a single top bail and counterweight connected to a “C shaped” hook. This C hook is inserted into the inner diameter (ID) of the coil to lift the coil horizontally. Vertical coil lifters on the other hand, feature two coil grabs that are inserted into the inner diameter (ID) of the coil and are expanded to securely grip and lift the coil vertically.

Coil lifters are the perfect material handling solution for any application in which coils of any material need to be lifted and positioned. Some of the most common C hook applications include:

• Heavy-duty Material Handling
• Paper Roll Handling
• Slit Coil Handling
• Close Stacking Coil Handling
• Pivoting Coil Handling

At Tri-State Rigging Equipment we specialize in providing custom designed and fabricated C hooks and coil lifters to fit any rigging application. We can also provide you with any standard “off the shelf” below the hook lifting device on the market.
