How wide does it open?
50 mm, which suits scaffold tube and smaller structural sections. For wider sections take the FS 92 at 85 mm or the FS 64 ALU at 64 mm.
What is palm locking?
A one hand locking system, released with the palm as the hook is presented to the anchor, so it can be used while the other hand is occupied.
How heavy is it?
0.49 kg, the lightest of the steel hooks in this range.
What is a captive eye?
The attachment eye is fixed so the lanyard or sling cannot slide around the body of the hook. That keeps the connector loaded along its strong axis.
