📘 Overview
A Star Industries forklift hook attachment gives a forklift a proper rated lifting point, instead of straps, cables or chains looped around bare forks — which is what draws an OSHA citation. Four capacities are offered: the 1366 economy hook at 6,000 lb, the 1370B at 10,000 lb, the 1371B at 12,000 lb and the 1377 at 22,000 lb. Each slides onto the forks and is pinned behind the heel, and each includes a heavy-duty swivel hook with latch and a bolted anchor shackle. A safety chain is included for additional security. All models suit straight-mast and extendable-reach forklifts.

🔑 Why Buyers Choose the Star Industries Universal Fit Lift Hook
- Straps around bare forks is the citation — a fork tine is not a rated lifting point and has no latch. A rated hook attachment is the difference between a compliant lift and a finding.
- The latch is what stops the sling jumping the hook — an unlatched hook releases its load the moment the line goes slack against an obstruction. Every Star lift hook includes a swivel hook with latch as standard.
- A swivel hook lets the load find its own orientation — a fixed hook forces a slung load to twist the sling instead of rotating, which is how slings get damaged and loads spin unpredictably.
- Capacity spans nearly four to one across the range — 6,000 lb on the 1366 up to 22,000 lb on the 1377, so the hook can be matched to the machine rather than defaulting to the smallest.
- Fork pocket size changes with capacity — the 1366 takes 6 3/8 in pockets at 20 in centres while the 1377 takes 8 7/8 in at 34 in centres. The larger hooks need larger forks, which is a fitment check rather than a preference.

🔗 Hooks, Shackles and Fork Pins
Each lift hook is supplied with a heavy-duty swivel hook with latch, a bolted anchor shackle and a safety chain. Replacement hooks and shackles are stocked separately by capacity — swivel hooks with latch from 2 ton (4,000 lb) up to 11 ton (22,000 lb), and bolted anchor shackles from 2 ton (4,000 lb) up to 12 ton (24,000 lb) — along with replacement latches for each hook size. Fork pins are available for the 1370B, 1371B and 1377, and shackles and hooks for the 1366 are available on their own.
🚜 Which Forklifts Fit This Forklift Hook Attachment?
All four hooks are slip-on-forks and suit both straight-mast and extendable-reach forklifts. The fitment check is fork pocket size against your forks: the 1366 takes 6 3/8 by 3 inch pockets at 20 inches centre to centre, the 1370B and 1371B take 7 1/2 by 2 3/8 inch pockets at 34 inches, and the 1377 takes 8 7/8 by 3 1/2 inch pockets at 34 inches. All have open pocket ends. The hooks are designed to utilise the full capacity of the forklift, so the governing limit is the machine load chart rather than the hook rating.
| Model | Lift Capacity | Requires Fork Pockets |
|---|---|---|
| 1366 | 6,000 lb | 6 3/8 in x 3 in ID at 20 in centre |
| 1370B | 10,000 lb | 7 1/2 in x 2 3/8 in ID at 34 in centre |
| 1371B | 12,000 lb | 7 1/2 in x 2 3/8 in ID at 34 in centre |
| 1377 | 22,000 lb | 8 7/8 in x 3 1/2 in ID at 34 in centre |
❓ Star Industries Universal Fit Lift Hook Questions, Answered
Why not just use straps around the forks?
Because a fork tine is not a rated lifting point and has no latch to retain a sling. Using straps, cables or chains around bare forks is what draws an OSHA citation. A rated forklift lift hook gives a proper anchor with a latched swivel hook.
Which lift hook capacity do I need?
Match it to the machine and the loads. The 1366 is rated 6,000 lb, the 1370B 10,000 lb, the 1371B 12,000 lb and the 1377 22,000 lb. Also check fork pocket size, since the larger hooks need larger forks.
Is a hook and shackle included?
Yes. Every lift hook includes a heavy-duty swivel hook with latch and a bolted anchor shackle, plus a safety chain for additional security. Replacement hooks, shackles and latches are stocked separately by capacity.
Why does the hook swivel?
So the load can find its own orientation. A fixed hook forces a slung load to twist the sling rather than rotating freely, which damages slings and makes loads spin unpredictably during a lift.
Will the lift hook fit my forks?
Check pocket size. The 1366 needs 6 3/8 by 3 inch pockets at 20 inches on centre; the 1370B and 1371B need 7 1/2 by 2 3/8 inch at 34 inches; the 1377 needs 8 7/8 by 3 1/2 inch at 34 inches. All have open pocket ends.
Do these hooks meet OSHA and ANSI requirements?
Yes, all models meet and exceed OSHA and ANSI requirements. Lifting attachments are subject to periodic inspection, so a rated and documented hook matters at audit as well as in use.
Does the hook rating mean my forklift can lift that much?
No. The hooks are designed to utilise the full capacity of the forklift, but the governing limit is your machine load chart at the height and reach you are working at, not the hook rating.
Can I buy replacement hooks and shackles separately?
Yes. Swivel hooks with latch are stocked from 2 ton (4,000 lb) to 11 ton (22,000 lb), bolted anchor shackles from 2 ton (4,000 lb) to 12 ton (24,000 lb), and replacement latches are available for each hook size.
What warranty comes with the lift hooks?
The Star Industries universal lift hooks carry a 5-year factory guarantee and are made in the USA.
