ASME B30.10 – Hooks: Safety Standard for Cableways, Cranes, Derricks, Hoists, Hooks, Jacks, and Slings

Volume B30.10 includes provisions that apply to the fabrication, attachment, use, inspection, and maintenance of hooks shown in Chapters 10-1 and 10-2 used for load handling purposes, in conjunction with equipmentdescribed in other volumes of the B30 Standard. Hooks supporting a load in the base (bowl/saddle or pinhole) of the hook are covered in Chapter 10-1. Hooks that may be loaded in other than the base (bowl/saddle or pinhole) are covered in Chapter 10-2.

Careful application of B30 safety standards will help users to comply with applicable regulations within their jurisdictions, while achieving the operational and safety benefits to be gained from the many industry best-practices detailed in these volumes.

Intended for manufacturers, owners, employers, users and others concerned with the specification, buying, maintenance, training and safe use of slings and hooks with B30 equipment, plus all potential governing entities.
