2 AUTHORISED APPLICATIONS
Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks have a high-performance bearing surface finished with a plas-
tic coating, which is easy to replace. Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks are used exclusively for
horizontal lifting and transporting of pipes. The hooks can only be used in pairs using a
two-leg sling or spreader beam. Compact and lightweight in design, Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe
hooks have a high lifting capacity.
3 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Determine whether the WLL of the TPH(-HD) is sufficient for the object to be lifted.
Determine the allowable lifting angle from the “diagram determining allowable lifting
angle” provided below, the thickness of the material to be lifted and the maximum jaw
opening of the hooks in question.
Always use a two-leg sling or spreader beam to lift pipes. Do not use two cranes to do so.
Place the Terrier TPH(-HD) pipe hooks attached at each end of the pipes completely inside
the pipe, until they sit firmly in the back end of the jaws. Lift the load slowly and transfer
it to the destination point, then lower slowly until it is resting on solid ground. The TPH(-
HD) pipe hooks can now be easily removed. They are ready to be used again or put away.
