What is the rated capacity of this hook?
10,000 lb. The one model in this line, HOOK-S-10, is described as a swivel hook with shackle at 10,000 lb capacity, and that is both the low and high end of the capacity range offered. Before lifting, confirm the total suspended weight — load plus sling, spreader, or any other attached hardware — stays within that rating.
Which model do I order, and what does it cost?
There is a single model, HOOK-S-10, at $125.13. Because only one configuration is available, the price range for this product is $125.13 to $125.13 — there are no alternate capacities or sizes to compare within the line. If you need more than one pick point, order multiple units of the same model.
What comes with the hook?
The shackle is included; the model description reads "SWIVEL HOOK WITH SHACKLE 10K CAPACITY." Nothing beyond the hook and shackle is listed in the specifications, so assume slings, chain, wire rope, hoists, or any mounting hardware are purchased separately. If you need a specific connecting component supplied with it, confirm before ordering rather than assuming it ships in the box.
What does the swivel do?
It lets the hook be turned so it lines up with the load before the lift. The specifications do not state a rating for rotating a suspended load, so do not assume the swivel is built for that — treat it as a positioning feature and check Vestil's literature for HOOK-S-10 if your application requires rotation under load.
How is it inspected and maintained?
Inspect it before use and pull it from service if it shows damage. ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) B30.10 covers hooks and defines removal-from-service conditions such as cracks, deformation, throat spreading, and twist; OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) requires damaged rigging hardware be taken out of use. Keep the shackle pin and swivel clean and moving freely.
Where is it made, and what warranty applies?
It is made in the USA by Vestil Manufacturing and carries a 1-Year Limited warranty. That makes it a straightforward choice for shops that need a 10,000 lb swivel hook and shackle from a domestic manufacturer. It is not the right part if your loads exceed 10,000 lb or you need a different attachment style, since no other configuration is offered.
