Chain
Available in different grades, chains are used in heavy lifting and securing applications, offering strength and durability for a variety of rigging tasks.
Chain Hooks
Chain hooks are designed for attaching a chain to a load or anchor point, offering secure and easy connections in lifting and rigging applications.
Eye Bolts & Pad Eyes
Eye bolts and pad eyes are used as anchor points for securing rigging systems. Eye bolts feature a loop for attaching hooks or slings, pad eyes attach to the equipment.
Hooks
Hooks are used in rigging to connect various components, such as slings, chains, or hoists, to a load. Available in a range of sizes, including latch hooks, ensuring secure connections during lifting.
Master Links
Master links are used to connect multiple lifting components together in a rigging system, such as chains and slings. Master links provide a central connection point for distributing weight.
Shackles
Shackles are U-shaped devices with a pin or bolt used to connect rigging components such as chains, slings, and other lifting hardware. Available in various types, including screw pin and bolt types.
Snatch Blocks
Snatch blocks are pulleys designed for use with cables or ropes in rigging applications. They allow you to change the direction of a line or increase lifting capacity by reducing the load on the hoist.
Sockets
Sockets are used to attach wire ropes to rigging hardware, ensuring secure and efficient transfer of force.
Swivel Hoist Rings
Swivel hoist rings are designed to rotate, allowing for multi-directional lifting without twisting the lifting device. They offer flexibility and ensure that loads are lifted safely and at the correct angle.
Swivels
Swivels allow rigging components to rotate freely without twisting, making them ideal for applications requiring flexibility and movement. They reduce the risk of equipment damage.
Thimbles
Thimbles are used in wire rope rigging to protect the rope from wear and tear. They help maintain the shape of the rope loop, enhancing the longevity and safety of the rigging system.
Turnbuckles
Turnbuckles are adjustable devices used to tighten or loosen tension in cables or ropes. They provide precise control over the tension of a rigging system, ensuring secure load management.
Wire Rope Clips
Wire rope clips are used to secure the ends of wire ropes, forming a loop or securing the rope to a rigging system. They are essential for ensuring proper tension and safety in wire rope assemblies.
