SPEED KING HOOK FOR SAT DECK OPENINGS
S-46 Speed king with H-43 hook
The CONTECH® S‑46 Speed King with H‑43 hook is a heavy‑duty chain tensioning device designed for rapid and controlled tightening of 13 mm lashing chains in marine and project‑cargo securing applications. The system combines a robust chain‑clutch mechanism which securely grips the lashing chain, with a H‑43 hook specifically engineered to fit directly into ISO deck sockets, ensuring a reliable and standardized connection point on board vessels.
Key Features & Operation
- Compatible with standard 13 mm lashing chains, commonly used in maritime cargo securing operations
- Integrated chain‑clutch system allows fast engagement and positioning of the chain without time‑consuming manual adjustments
- H‑43 hook provides direct connection into ISO deck sockets, eliminating the need for intermediate fittings
- Designed for high‑speed tensioning, significantly reducing lashing time compared to conventional chain turnbuckles
Tool‑Assisted Tensioning
The S‑46 Speed King is optimized for use with powered tightening tools, ensuring consistent and repeatable chain tension:
- S‑98P pneumatic ratchet for intensive, continuous operations
- S‑98E battery‑operated ratchet for flexible use in areas without compressed‑air supply
Construction & Typical Applications
- Heavy‑duty construction suitable for repeated use in demanding marine environments
- Commonly applied in project cargo securing, RoRo operations, and offshore transport when ISO fitting are available on the deck
- Intended for use by trained crews familiar with powered chain‑tensioning systems
The S‑46 Speed King with H‑43 hook provides a fast, safe, and efficient alternative to traditional chain turnbuckles, especially where standardized ISO deck fittings are available.
