The Carcano catalogue is constantly expanding, with the aim of satisfying an ever-increasing range of customer requests and needs: our technicians aim to respond to market demands as well as to be often one step ahead of them so as to be ready at all times to deal with any new developments or applications. In this case, however, we are not talking about new products, but about two hooks that – thanks to their particular features – are already among the leading attractions in the Carcano catalogue.
C7G hook and the C7GC swivel hook: the reasons for choosing them
The C7G hook, also available in the C7GC swivel version with bearing, combines unique finishes, high performance and a wide range in stock together with competitive prices. Features that make it one of the leading attractions in the grade 80 catalogue.


Grade 80 lifting accessories: C7G and C7GC hooks
Among the leading attractions in the grade 80 catalogue, the C7G and C7GC hooks combine high performance with the availability of a wide range of products in stock
The C7G hook – also available in the C7GC swivel version – incorporates several features that make it particularly attractive: the high performance that is typical of products in the Carcano catalogue is also supported by a full range of items, abundant warehouse stocks and competitive prices, without forgetting their extraordinary finish.
These grade 80 hooks are available in a wide range from 1.25 to 11.5 tons, thus ensuring that we can truly meet every need. And that’s not all: it is a product that is always available with abundant warehouse stocks, so that we can meet even the most urgent requests.
Even their finish makes these hooks rather special compared to the rest of the products in the catalogue: they have a matt enamel finish that makes them more resistant to scratches and signs of wear. Last but not least, their competitive price undoubtedly makes these hooks an attractive choice from several points of view.
C7GC swivel hook with bearing and safety latch
Another feature that makes the C7GC hook unique is that in addition to being rotatable, it can also swivel when under load thanks to the inclusion of a bearing
If the general features of these hooks are in themselves an invitation to use them, the C7GC model has another particular feature that makes it a truly unique product in the range: it is in fact a swivel hook.
Most hooks are rotatable under load, but the C7GC hook does something more: it is not only rotatable, it can also swivel when under load. A fundamental difference provided by the inclusion of a bearing that makes it a unique product with clear advantages in use.
Like its C7G twin model, it is also fitted with a safety latch that ensures risk-free lifting and moving of loads and is available in a wide range of capacities up to 11.5 tons.
What’s the best way to use hooks and chains? We’ll teach you how
Carcano always aims to include in its catalogue the very best items for safe and effective lifting systems: however, you also need to know how to use them most effectively and that is why we set up our Academy.
Our catalogue has been gradually enriched with an increasing number of new products designed to make lifting and handling loads ever safer and easier to use, with a view to providing everyone with the accessories that best suit their needs.
Whatever their high-quality and high-performance, no product is truly safe unless it is used correctly and competently, with the assembly of lifting systems according to certain rules and of course by replacing accessories that have deteriorated. CARTEC Safety Academy was established precisely to teach users how to assemble safe and high-performance lifting systems, how to read the various acronyms and markings and how to comply with current regulations at all times. It is a programme of courses at different levels of difficulty targeting those who, in their various capacities, have to deal with lifting and handling.
