Engine Lift Chain With Hooks — Heavy-Duty Chains for Safe Engine Removal & Installation

An engine lift chain with hooks is an essential tool for workshops, garages, automotive service centers, and industrial maintenance teams. Designed to handle the weight of engines, gearboxes, transmissions, and heavy components, this chain system combines high-strength alloy steel with secure hooks that attach safely to an engine hoist, crane, gantry, or lifting frame.

At TOPONE CHAIN, we manufacture heavy-duty engine lift chains engineered for reliability, repeated use, and safe lifting performance. Whether you’re handling passenger vehicles, trucks, industrial engines, or marine power units, our chains deliver consistent strength and control.




What Makes a High-Quality Engine Lift Chain With Hooks?

A professional-grade engine lifting chain includes:

1. Alloy Steel Lifting Chain

Manufactured from quenched and tempered alloy steel

Rated for overhead lifting (G80 or G100 grade)

Short-link design for better load distribution

2. Secure Hooks for Engine Attachment

Available options include:

Clevis Grab Hooks

Self-Locking Hooks

Latching Sling Hooks

Shackle Attachments

Each hook ensures a stable connection to the engine lifting points or mounting brackets.

3. Load Identification & Traceability

WLL markings

Serial traceability per EN 818

Optional test certificates

4. Compatibility With Hoists & Cranes

Engine hoists (shop cranes)

Overhead cranes

Gantry cranes

Levellers & load balancers




Applications of Engine Lift Chains With Hooks

Engine lift chains are commonly used for

Removing automotive engines from passenger cars

Lifting truck & heavy equipment engines

Marine engine replacement

Tractor & agricultural machinery repair
