Unveiling the Green Pin® ROV Pro Shank Hook: Revolutionary Innovation for Subsea Operations

We are thrilled to announce that our latest innovation, the Green Pin® ROV Pro Shank Hook (P-6740P), has been launched at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) in Houston, USA. Designed to meet the demanding requirements of subsea lifting operations, this pro shank hook is revolutionizing how remote-operated vehicle (ROV) operations are conducted.

3-in-1 functionality add-on

One of the standout features of the Green Pin® ROV Pro Shank Hook is its 3-in-1 functional add-on, which can be operated with a ROV manipulator and manually. This add-on allows users to efficiently open, lock, and unlock the safety latch, enhancing operational speed, safety and reliability. Furthermore, the hook is equipped with a tip extension that ensures the safety latch remains in place, enhancing safety and precision during operations. Learn more about the 3-in-1 add-on right here.

  • Easy to operate 3-in-1 functional add-on
    • Opening the safety latch for efficient releasing the load
    • Unlocking the safety latch for easier engaging the hook
    • Automatic locking latch for increased safety

Improved Green Pin® ROV Shank Hook E GR8

We are also excited to present the improved Green Pin® ROV Shank Hook E GR8 (P-6740), a versatile and robust solution for your subsea operations. While it features the same reliable hook design as the Green Pin® ROV Pro Shank Hook, this updated version does not come with the 3-in-1 functional add-on found on the Pro model. This makes it an excellent choice for projects that require high performance without the need for extra features.

Subsea environments

Both hooks are a grade 8 eye hook with a long shank, specifically designed for release and retrieval operations in subsea environments using a ROV. Featuring a wider opening, wider saddle and higher Working Load Limit (WLL), it is ideal for handling larger lifting slings or attachments with ease. The white-coated hook and orange-coated slider ensure durability and improve underwater visibility, simplifying the process of grabbing and positioning the hook even in harsh subsea conditions. The design of the hook, combined with its smooth finish, minimizes wear on lifting slings.

Wide Range of Applications

Available in a range with a WLL from 12 t up to 35 t, the Green Pin® ROV Pro Shank Hook and improved Green Pin® Shank Hook E GR8 offers a reliable and robust solution for demanding subsea lifting operations. It is suitable for various applications, including offshore wind energy projects, oil and gas installations, and subsea pipeline constructions.
