Hook for webbing

A hook for webbing comprising a metal rod bent in a single piece having an upper cross piece (1) intended for receiving a webbing, said cross piece transforming into two legs (2, 2') which converge from opposite ends thereof so as to form a loop part (3) together with the cross piece and at least one of which transforms into a curved rod portion (4, 4') for forming a lower hook part (5), characterized in that the curved rod portion (4, 4') of the hook part (5) has, in a cross-section at least in the area of a bottom of the hook part, a height (Y) which is larger than a width (X) thereof and thus a moment of inertia which is larger than the moment of inertia of a conventional round rod, and that at least a central portion (7) of the cross piece (1) has a cross-section-wise larger height than width and is, with the geometrical major axis thereof, obliequely inclined in relation to the legs (2, 2'), more precisely into a plane of forces extending towards the hook part.
