A hook spring in 65Mn manganese spring steel with a black coating, combining a coil body with a formed hook so that the part both tensions and connects. It is used where a spring needs to attach directly to a fixture without a separate link.
The coil provides the tension and the formed hook provides the attachment, with no joint between them.
Manganese spring steel gives better fatigue performance than plain carbon steel where the part works continuously.
Keeps the part consistent with dark equipment hardware and gives more protection than a bare surface.
Inspect the coil-to-hook transition rather than the hook opening when checking for wear. That is where fatigue shows first on this design.

ISO 9001, SGS certificate and RoHS report (stated on the legacy site, certificates pending re-confirmation). Certificate copies are sent on request once re-confirmed.
Against a spring joined to a separate hook, the integrated part removes the joint that is usually the weakest element, at the cost of a fixed configuration.
At the transition between the coil and the hook. That radius is formed as part of the coiling programme rather than bent afterwards.
Yes, and for permanent installations it is worth specifying so the spring cannot work off its anchor.
No. Specify galvanising or dacromet for exposed positions.
