Hoist Rings

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides comprehensive specifications and guidelines for various types of hoist rings, including safety-engineered, stainless steel, and forged options. It covers technical data, safety precautions, and assembly kits for different load capacities.
1. Safety Engineered Hoist Rings: These hoist rings are designed for safe lifting with load capacities from 400 lbs to 125 tons. Made from AISI 4140 aircraft quality material with a black oxide finish, they feature a safety factor of 5:1 and undergo rigorous testing, including certified heat treatment, 100% magnetic particle inspection, and 200% proof-load testing.
2. Stainless Steel Safety Engineered Hoist Rings: Suitable for outdoor and corrosive environments, these are made from 300 series stainless steel, offering a safety factor of 5:1 and tested with liquid penetrant mil 6868.
3. Hoist Ring Kits: These kits allow for custom assembly of swivel hoist rings, including components like U-Bar, screws, bushings, washers, and E-rings, enabling configuration of over 24 different sizes and capacities.
4. Bushing, Washer, Screw Kits: These kits enable changing load ratings by altering components, made from aircraft quality "chrome moly" AISI 4140, available in thread sizes from 1/4” to 2-1/2”.
5. Safety Precautions: Emphasizes adherence to safety guidelines to prevent accidents during lifting operations.
Specifications: Includes material specifications, load ratings, safety factors, and installation instructions. Materials include Alloy Certified Aircraft Quality with options for chrome moly and black oxide finishes. Load ratings range from 600 lbs to 31,300 lbs, with safety factors typically 5:1 or 6:1.
Product Types:
  • Tuff Forged™ Swivel Hoist Rings: Swivels 360 degrees and pivots 180 degrees, suitable for various lifting applications.
  • Side Pull Hoist Rings: Designed for side-mounted applications, with large rings for different hoist hooks.
  • Round Base Swivel & Pivot Hoist Rings: Ideal for pre-cast concrete products, with a wide base for shear load distribution.
  • Street Plate Lifting Ring: Used for lifting steel trench plates, facilitating tightening and loosening.
Installation and Usage Guidelines:
  • Ensure proper torque is applied to screws during installation.
  • Regular inspection of hoist rings is recommended before each use.
  • Choose hoist rings with appropriate load ratings for the intended application.
  • Ensure hoist rings can pivot and swivel freely in all directions.
Safety Information: Highlights the importance of reading safety precautions prior to use, inspecting hoist rings regularly, and adhering to recommended torque values to ensure safe operation.
Introduction: Guidelines for the proper selection, installation, and maintenance of hoist rings to ensure safety and efficiency in lifting operations.
Specifications: Hoist rings should be installed in materials with a tensile strength of at least 80,000 psi. Thread engagement must be at least 1.5 times the diameter of the hoist ring screw. When using a nut and washer, a Grade 8 nut with full thread engagement is required.
Installation Procedures: Ensure the bushing of the hoist ring sits flush against the object being lifted. Tighten screws to the recommended torque and periodically check them. Avoid using washers or spacers between the hoist ring and the mounting surface.
Usage Recommendations: Never exceed the rated load or apply shock loads. Hoist rings must pivot and swivel freely in all directions. Use only TE-CO recommended parts for replacements.
Inspection and Maintenance: Inspect hoist rings before each use for signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure the screw is tightened to the recommended torque and that the hoist ring can swivel and pivot freely. Regular load-testing is advised as a precaution.
Load Distribution: The load on each hoist ring is not simply the total weight divided by the number of hoist rings. The resultant force can be significantly greater at shallow lift angles and with unevenly distributed loads. For example, at a 60-degree angle, the load is 577 lbs, while at a 20-degree angle, it is 1,462 lbs.
Comparison with Eyebolts: Swivel hoist rings are preferable to shouldered eyebolts as they maintain the same load rating at any angle, whereas eyebolts are only rated for zero-degree loads.
Safety Notes: Regular inspection and adherence to usage instructions are crucial to prevent misuse and failure. Safe working loads should never be exceeded, and hoist rings should not be used near corrosive materials or extreme temperatures without consultation.
