Formwork hook is a mobile anchor point conforming to EN795:2012B standard. It was designed to provide fall protection when working on formworks.
Formwork hook connects with formwork wales by pin which is meant to be inserted into slots in horizontal formwork wales. Pin attachements were designed to fit to different formwork walls from different manufacturers.
Due to the low weight of the hooks they are convenient to work with. Tests performed during hook development (incl. tests with load cells) ensure safety of formwork structures when using hooks.
Interchangable attachements for pin can be easily changed for other type to fit different type of formwork. Changing attachements require only two allen keys therefore it can be done on site when needed.
Formwork hooks can be used for moving and work positioning on formwork walls. For work positioning (shown in a picture) lower hook is intended for positioning and upper for fall protection.
