🔗Set of 4 lifting eyes
📘 Overview
Hopper lifting hooks let a self-dump hopper be handled with a crane rather than only by forklift. The Star Industries 1800-LH is a set of four lifting eyes that allow that rather than only by forklift. On a site where the hopper needs to reach a level the forklift cannot, this is what makes that possible. One limit is important and worth stating plainly: a hopper cannot be discharged while suspended from a crane. The hooks are for lifting and positioning the hopper, not for tipping it in the air — the hopper must be supported before its rope release is used.

🔑 Why Buyers Choose the Star Industries 1800-LH Hopper Lifting Hooks
- It extends where a hopper can go — a forklift reaches what a forklift reaches. Four lifting eyes let a crane place a hopper on a level or in a position the machine cannot get to.
- Lifting is not the same as dumping — the hooks are for moving the hopper. A self-dump hopper cannot be discharged while suspended, and must be supported before the release is used. That is a safety limit, not a preference.
- Four points keep the hopper level — a hopper on a single or two-point pick tilts as it lifts, and a tilting hopper with a rope release is not something to have overhead.
- Sold separately because most hoppers never need them — a hopper used on forks does not need lifting eyes at all. Fitting them is a decision for sites where crane handling is genuinely required.
- Rigging is yours to specify — slings must be rated for the load plus the empty weight of the hopper, which ranges from 460 lb to around 1,000 lb depending on size.

❓ Star Industries 1800-LH Hopper Lifting Hooks Questions, Answered
What do the lifting hooks do?
They allow a Star self-dump hopper to be handled with a crane rather than only by forklift. The 1800-LH is a set of four lifting hooks, or eyes, fitted to the hopper so it can be lifted and positioned from above.
Can I dump the hopper while it is hanging from the crane?
No. A self-dump hopper cannot be discharged while suspended from a crane. The hooks are for lifting and positioning only — the hopper must be set down and supported before the rope release is operated.
Are the hooks included with the hopper?
No, they are sold separately. Most hoppers are used on forklift forks and never need lifting eyes, so fitting them is a decision for sites where crane handling is genuinely required.
How many hooks are in a set?
Four. A four-point pick is what keeps the hopper level during the lift — a hopper on fewer points tilts as it rises, which is not something to have overhead with a rope release fitted.
Is rigging included?
No. Rigging is supplied by you and must be rated for the load plus the empty weight of the hopper, which ranges from 460 lb on the 1805N to around 1,000 lb on the largest models.
What other options are available for self-dump hoppers?
The heavy-duty steel caster kit, model 1000-0510, with 8 inch polyurethane wheels on roller bearings. It lets a hopper be wheeled around a floor and filled in place, though weight capacity with casters is 4,000 lb less the weight of the hopper.
Are replacement parts available for the hopper itself?
Yes. Latch assemblies with 16 inch or 22 inch handles, latch handles, flipper latch lock weldments, latch brackets, springs, hook assemblies and rocker weldments with riker pins are all stocked as parts.
