Crane Hook Inspection: Inspection of Crane Hooks, per OSHA 1910.179 standard and ASME B30.10 standard, follows the process below:

  1. Physical characteristics, such as capacity, serial number, type and manufacturer of crane hooks are recorded on an inspection report.
  2. Crane hooks are visually inspected for excessive wear, deformation, out of plane bending, excessive gouges and missing capacity markings.
  3. Throat and saddle measurements of crane hook are taken to keep records of stretch or growth from year to year.
  4. Crane hooks are inspected for invisible cracks using a Magnetic Particle test or a Liquid Penetrant test.
  5. Each crane hook that passes will be tagged with a color coded inspection tag or sticker, demonstrating that it has been checked.
  6. Crane hooks which do not pass inspection will be tagged with a caution tag as well as a red paint mark.
  7. Lastly, a computer generated report will be provided on a spreadsheet with a certificate governing regulatory standards for all passing items.

We inspect nationwide with businesses of all sizes - from major auto plants to local tool and die shops.
