2. Authorised Applications
pewag PHW(-HD) pipe hooks have a high-performance bearing surface finished with a plastic coating, which is easy
to replace. pewag PHW(-HD) pipe hooks are used exclusively for horizontal lifting and transporting of pipes. The
pewag PHW(-HD) hooks can only be in pairs using a two-leg sling or spreader beam. Compact and lightweight in
design, pewag PHW(-HD) pipe hooks have a high lifting capacity.
3. Operating Principle
Determine whether the WLL of the PHW(-HD) is sufficient for the object to be lifted. Determine the permissible lifting
angle from the "diagram determining permissible lifting angle" provided below, the thickness of the material to be
lifted and the maximum jaw opening of the hooks in question. Always use a two-leg sling or spreader beam to lift
pipes. Do not use two cranes to do so. Place the pewag PHW(-HD) pipe hooks attached at each end of the pipes
completely inside the pipe, until they sit firmly in the back end of the jaws. Lift the load slowly and transfer it to the
destination point, then lower slowly until it is resting on solid ground. The PHW(-HD) pipe hooks can now be easily
removed. The PHW(-HD) pipe hooks are ready to be used again or put away.
