Caldwell Rig-Release Hooks
A Remote Releasing Hook for Total Safety
The Rig-Release Remote Releasing Hook will allow you to set loads, and then quickly, efficiently, and safely release the rigging from a safe distance. The Rig-Release simply hooks to your crane or spreader beam. You can then attach the slings(s) directly to the Rig-Release and rig the load. Once the load line is set and the crane line is slack, pull the release rope to release the sling(s). No need for a man lift on site or to have a worker crawl out (or up) just to disconnect sling(s). It's all done from a safe distance.
Choose Between Manual and Radio Controlled
The Rig-Release is available in two versions, manual and radio controlled. While both models ultimately perform the same task, the radio controlled version does it all with the push of a button. It ships with two 12 VDC 0.8 Amp Hr. sealed, maintenance-free lead acid batteries (rechargeable). Also included is one charger and one vehicle adapter for standard 12 VDC vehicle outlets. The battery life lasts through an 8-hour shift, depending on frequency of operation. The minimum required cycle time is 1-2 minutes between releases, which should be sufficient for most jobs.
