Lifting points, widely known as rigging points or hoist rings, are highly specialized hardware attachments utilized across various industries to facilitate the safe and efficient lifting of heavy loads. Engineered to provide unshakeable attachment anchors for slings, chains, and hooks, they are the critical foundation for ensuring the absolute stability and safety of any overhead lifting operation.
Engineered to pivot a full 360 degrees and rotate 180 degrees. This dynamic movement allows for unmatched flexibility in positioning, completely reducing the risk of the load becoming unbalanced or applying dangerous side-loads during precision lifts.
Screw-in bolts forged with a closed load-bearing loop (eye) at one end. They are designed to be deeply and securely threaded into a load-bearing structure or machine to provide a permanent or temporary reliable attachment point.
Pad eyes are flat metal plates with an integrated attachment point, while lifting lugs are robust structural protrusions. Both are typically permanently welded or heavily bolted to structures, vessels, or equipment, making them staples in marine, offshore, and construction settings.
Forged metal rings shaped like the letter "D", securely attached to flatbed trailers, heavy equipment, or structural frames. Available in multiple high-strength configurations, including fixed, removable, or multidirectional pivoting designs.
Specialized lifting sockets that are permanently embedded or cast directly into concrete or other rigid materials. They provide an internal, flush attachment point for threading lifting inserts or anchors during precast construction operations.
In-line safety swivels or swivel hooks are used in conjunction with standard lifting hardware to actively absorb and reduce the twisting or spinning of suspended loads. They are highly recommended for loads with an asymmetrical center of gravity.
