Lightweight Chain Choker Hook for Logging & Skidding

This compact choker hook is designed for use with 9/32" (1/4") and 5/16" chain, offering a rugged solution for pulling, skidding, and other heavy-duty ground operations. Made from high-strength Grade 80 alloy steel and rated for a 4,500-pound Working Load Limit (WLL), it delivers dependable performance without the weight of larger hooks. Its slim profile and easy-to-use design make it a popular choice for forestry, utility, and trail-clearing work.

Compact, Durable, and Built for Security

The hook features a large internal bowl that allows the chain to move freely once inserted, while a narrow slotted tip helps prevent accidental unhooking under load. A load pin secured by a rolled cotter pin makes installation fast and secure without the need for welding. Finished in high-visibility red, this hook stands out easily in rugged environments. It is not rated for overhead lifting and should only be used for ground-level pulling applications.
