Our CAB Hooks and Hangers are ideal for both surface and underground mining applications, for heavy industrial plants, high level construction works and within ceiling spaces on large infrastructure projects. CAB Hooks and Hangers are manufactured from High Carbon spring steel and are all fully load tested to the recommended loads for each hanger. The High Carbon spring steel has a very high tensile strength and this is due to the higher levels of carbon in relation to iron, than in other types of steel. This higher carbon content provides greater overall strength in the finished product, so while other types of steel may have carbon content as low as 0.05%, our high carbon steel contains between 2% and 2.5% carbon for superior strength and load bearing capabilities.
The CAB Hooks and Hangers are all coated with an electric orange Plastisol coating to a thickness in excess of 2mm. This Plastisol coating is fire retardant, offers an extremely high dielectric strength (electrical insulation) and is totally UV stable. Plastisol doesn't conduct heat or electricity, it is also corrosion and wear-resistant, plus it's a tough material so impact or consistent interference will cause minimal damage.
The visually attractive nature of our CAB hooks and hangers with the highly visible orange colour finish, can also help increase safety with enhanced visibility for the cabling system.
