Key design feature: the integrated safety device (spring-loaded closing latch) prevents accidental release of the sling during lifting. For operator safety in lifting operations, the safety device is legally mandatory (European standard EN 1677 on lifting hooks). 500 kg capacity designed for lifting light loads: packages, semi-finished products, small equipment. The Ø 14 mm hole allows connection to chains, wire ropes, textile slings or standard lifting slings. The hook opening C 41.9 mm defines the dimensions of the compatible sling eye. In Krollit customer workshops, the ID 500 hook is chosen by mechanical workshops, metalworking shops, construction sites, logistics warehouses, and all contexts where lifting operations require EN 1677 certified hooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIts place in the Bernardo range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bernardo ID lifting hook range is organized into 6 models by capacity: ID 250 (250 kg), ID 500 (500 kg), ID 1000 (1,000 kg), ID 2000 (2,000 kg), ID 3200 (3,200 kg), ID 6400 (6,400 kg). All models are made of high-strength forged steel with an integrated safety device (automatic spring-loaded closing latch) compliant with European standard EN 1677. \n\nID 250 and ID 500 models share dimensions A 220 × B 89.9 × C 41.9 mm with a Ø 14 mm hole: physically the same hook, different capacity certification. The ID 500 model is designed for light applications. For higher capacities (1,000-2,000 kg), move up to the ID 1000\/2000 family with a larger Ø hole (14-21.8 mm). \n\nDifference with the Bernardo CW series: ID hooks are pure lifting hooks (without weight measurement); CW hooks are electronic hook dynamometers (with integrated weighing system). For lifting-only applications, ID hooks are economical and robust; for applications where load weighing is also required, choose CW.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLogistics and Krollit support\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBernardo shipping in 5-9 business days (7 days to Southern Italy).

For dynamic loads (fast lifts, impacts, oscillations), the effective capacity is reduced. For angled slings (2 or 4-leg chains that form an angle with the vertical), the effective capacity of each hook is significantly reduced: at a 60° opening, the effective capacity is 50% of the nominal.
