AMA - 95003 - Weld-On Hook For Lower Link Category 3

This hook is a weld-on component for the lower lift arm of a Category 3 three-point hitch. It provides the attachment point for the implement's lower link pins, transmitting draft and lift forces from the tractor's hitch system to the implement. The hook is designed to be welded directly onto the lift arm, replacing a damaged or worn original hook. A worn or deformed hook can cause the implement link pin to disengage during operation, leading to implement loss or damage. The hook's bore diameter and internal profile match the Category 3 pin dimensions, ensuring proper clearance and load distribution across the contact surface. During installation, the hook must be aligned with the lift arm's original orientation to maintain the correct pin engagement angle. Weld preparation and procedure should follow the manufacturer's specifications for the arm material.
