Top Hook Assembly for Manual Chain Hoists
This Dayton top hook assembly is built for manual chain hoists rated at 6,000 lb. It replaces or upgrades the upper suspension point on compatible Dayton series hoists. The steel construction provides the necessary strength for overhead lifting tasks. Part number 56996 identifies this specific assembly.
Suited for maintenance teams using Dayton manual
Facilities running other hoist brands or electric-powered units should verify compatibility before purchase. Operations needing a higher working load limit than 6,000 lb require a different assembly. Buyers without a matching Dayton series hoist will find this part unsuitable.
Steel hook with safety latch under continuous strain
The forged steel body resists deformation when the hoist holds a load near its rated capacity for extended periods. The integrated safety latch remains engaged during sustained tension, preventing accidental unhooking. Dimensions of 5.1 in width by 8.3 in height allow fitment within the designated Dayton series envelope.

Questions about this item
Which manual chain hoist models accept this 56996 top hook assembly?
It is compatible with Dayton-series manual chain hoists rated for 6,000 lb capacity.
Will the 5.1 in width and 8.3 in height fit the existing hook pocket on my older Dayton hoist?
Those dimensions match the Dayton-series specification, so the assembly seats in the same hook pocket used by other 6,000 lb Dayton hoists.
How do I confirm the safety latch is engaged after installing the hook?
The included latch should snap fully closed over the hook throat with no visible gap, and the hook should rotate freely without the latch dragging.
