Product Description
Choker Hooks for Logging
Choker Hooks are a key component in logging operations, used to connect wire rope chokers to logs for skidding and hauling. These hooks are designed with a large keyhole opening that allows the ferrule end of the choker rope to be quickly inserted, rotated, and locked into place. The result is a secure connection that relies on line tension rather than pins or keys for holding power.
Our choker hooks are offered in four sizes, covering the most common logging applications. Each hook is painted bright red for visibility in the field.
