Wear and Tear material
Wear and Tear material
(OP)
I have an industrial "S" hook that is used to secure mobility devices. There is a nominal force of approx. 500lbs on the hook at all times. I am looking for a sleeve and/or designing a covering/boot for this hook so that it does not wear/scratch/damage the mobility device.
Any suggestions on quality economical materials?
Any suggestions on possible sleeve designs?
I've gone through and designed a couple of sleeves, but none that I feel comfortable with.
Any suggestions will be greatful. Thanks!

Thanks for all the help! After some looking into, it seems like I'm gonna start testing the hook with a urethane covering. Thanks again for the input it helped a lot.
