Abstract: A pallet hook is provided to aid in the lifting of tube frame products made for the wire and tubing industry. The tool or device has four movable flippers that extend outward to grab the tube based frame of the item to be lifted. A movable linkage connected to the handle provides the means to lift the flippers out of the way for extraction. These flippers, when impinging against the stop block, provide the locking force necessary to lift. A lifting eye located on the end of the handle provides a connection point for a crane or other type of lifting aid. After the item has been moved and the crane hook disconnected, the user simply lifts the handle of the invention to retract the internal flippers and then withdraws the invention.
