ECE approval

Any type of a tow hook must positively pass a wide range of tests to be approved for market sales.

A Fatigue Strength Test is a basic test for a hook. Only positive completion of tests will qualify a given product for an ‘e’ or ‘E’ marked approval certificate.

Letter ‘e’ or ‘E’ is the first symbol designating the approval. ‘e’ type approval is issued based on the EU Directive, whereas ‘E’ type approval - on the UN-ECE Regulation. E and e approvals are equivalents.
