Does 5,000 LB capacity mean that up to 5,000 lb is what it can pull before the hook spreads or breaks?

5,000 lbs is the maximum weight the hook can sustain. I use them as tie-down hooks and would not recommend using them as a tow hook that would endure a surging pulling force that could exceed 5,000 lbs.

I really can't say, but it makes a perfect safety chain hook for my camper. It's very easy to attach and keep on the chain and it hooks and stays on the vehicle perfectly. I highly recommend this part times 2 for safety chains.

Sorry, it does not work that way. The spec is only for one hook to hold up to 5 lbs.

I have stretched it over huge heavy loads of bagged leaves in the bed of my pickup truck and it has not torn. It seems to be made of quality bungee cord material. Let me suggest though that one might do well to remove 12 of the 16 hooks as all you really need are the corner hooks. The excess hooks, if left on, present a huge problem with the whole net getting snarled up like a Gordian knot. I have stretched this net from the front tie downs, up and over bags that were 2' higher than the cab and then connected to the bottom of the rear bumper with no problems. But, of course, I lash a few pieces of 550 nylon line over the top to prevent shifting and to secure the load more snugly.

Hello there, If a hook can hold up to 5 lbs. Theoretically, 3 hooks should hold up 15 lbs. But there is no guarantee that it will. For the purpose of a hook is for a total amount of 5 lbs.Customer Support TeamBuyDMi

AFTER I purchased it the instruction thing said, "Not for towing." -Basically it is for bike racks etc only. In my case, when I received it, I threw it to the side till I needed it to find this out. (well past any return time)I do not know the answer to the weight it can pull. Sorry.

This Rod is so big and strong it can holds up my 400 yard of braided 60 pound line, not sure how much 100LB line is thicker than 60 pounds line.

It depends on the weight of the fish you are trying to catch. Lbs refers to the breaking strength of the line. A line rated 6 lbs should not break untill 6 pounds of pressure on the line. So a line rated 20 lbs should not break untill 20 pounds of pressure. The knot used reduces the strength of the line. Certain knots are stronger than others. Using 6 lbs test line, you can catch bigger fish than 6 pounds. You set the drag on your reel so when the drag is set, you can still pull line out without breaking the line. A big fish will get worn out pulling on your drag, and the rod will help you tire out the fish. The world record for Black Marlin on 6 lbs test line is 735 lbs 3 oz. So, there is no clearcut answer. If you are going to catch fish 5 to 20 lbls, then 5 to 10 lb test would be good.

The maximum weight capacity of the tow bar is 6,000 LBS. The towed vehicle and all its contents inside the vehicle cannot exceed 6,000 pounds.

there's no maximum capacity listed. as others have responded, this bag is designed to haul yard and garden debris. i've hauled 30 - 40 pounds worth of stuff on a number of occasions. the bag is light weight but the fabric is strong and the handles are attached firmly. just fill the bag, drag it, and dump it. can't get much easier.lee

As with any thing I would use caution when placing anything underneath a suspended load. I would not trust anything under a load without having some safety catches of some king in place. Check with the engineers conservative rating on load capacity as well as the engineering of your attachment of pulley system. Best advice is to check with a local engineer and or contractor as to codes, apps, etc.

No, Max pull strength is 25 pounds Hunting regulation requires depending on the state at least 45/50 minimum pounds of pull

I cannot respond to the question directly, however I can tell you about my experience. I have a 9000 lbs winch and it couldn't pull my 2001 silverado duramax out from my frame resting on the ground. I hooked the smitty to a tree with a chain and clevis effectively doubling the pulling power and it walked my truck right out. I hope this helps.

Very good question. A block and tackle system with a 7:1 ratio means that if you try to lift a 7 pound weight you will only have to pull with 1 pound of force. For every 7 feet of rope you pull, the weight will rise 1 foot. I use my block and tackle to weigh my scuba gear before travelling. My 50 pound bag needs only 7.1 pounds of effort to lift it.

According to the packaging, each hook will hold 55 lb. when screwed vertically into wood and 30 lb. when screwed vertically into sheetrock (on a toggle). There is no statement about capacity if mounted horizontally, which would be quite rare. I would imagine it to be quite low, as the load is then "shear" and not "tension". Hope this helps. :)

I agree with Molly, 10 pounds would be my max for one hook. Consider there are others of thicker gauge that will hold much more.

I tried to locate that info before I made my purchase, and couldn't find it. Even on the mfg site. I can tell you mine handles 300 lb without a problem.

It can, if you push it hard enough, however it will not pick anything up and will most likely break if you do attempt to use it in this manner.
