Wire RopesWire rope slings are the most common technique used for lifting material and it has the longest history in the rigging industry.
Application▪ Shipyard, dock works
▪ Bridge construction, pipeline laying
▪ Military construction work
▪ Power stations
▪ Steel & cement industries
The varied steel types given in the table are available in the following variations of slings depending upon the load to be handled.
▪ Single leg sling
▪ Spelter socket casting sling
▪ Double leg sling
▪ Grooved close spelter socket
▪ Quadruple legs sling
▪ Single lap binding sling
▪ Endless pressed end fitting
▪ Double lap binding sling
▪ Jaw pressed end fitting
▪ Endless sling
▪ Uni-threaded end fitting
▪ Pressed sling
Chain SlingsThese are made of high quality mild alloy steel and fitted with different types of legs according to the lifting requirement.
Application▪ General Purpose Lifting
▪ Steel Yards
▪ Container Landing
▪ Construction Yards
BeamsThe beams are utilized to enable using more than one sling, especially to avoid the slings getting strapped on to the load. For lifting heavy and over size material and hand lifting number of smaller loads.
Application▪ Steel Yards
▪ Harbours
▪ Ship Yards
▪ Power Plants
ClampsClamps and grabs are utilized at end of the slings in order to have a hold on the material lifted. The opening and closing of jaws in the clamps are controlled either manually or automatically. The material of construction is of high quality mild steel alloy.
Application▪ Upright lifting of material
▪ Turning over steel sheets
▪ Lifting pipes and drums
▪ Lifting steel sections
▪ Horizontal transport
Sling BeltsThese are synthetic fibre belts which are lighter than metal ropes / slings and are very easy for handling gripping and rigging.
Application▪ For lifting highly polished fragile and delicate material
▪ In rigging loads of complicated shapes where metal slings cannot be used
Advantages▪ Does not wear out due to corrosion
▪ Non conductive and hence no hazard of electric sparking
▪ Suits exact requirement for any load
▪ It is non - abrasive and does not damage the load
▪ It has high strength to weight ratio
Assembly for lifting▪ Eye hook
▪ Eye slip hook with latch
▪ S-hooks
▪ Cargo hooks
▪ Shank hooks
▪ D-shackle
▪ Clips
▪ Pallet truck
▪ Stacking truck
▪ Chain blocks
▪ Lever hoist
▪ Lever hoist
▪ Eye bolts
▪ Wedge socket
▪ Master Link
▪ Non-welded sling link
▪ Master link assembly
▪ Clevis slip hook
▪ Clevis grasp hook
▪ Anchor shackle
▪ Block
▪ Turn buckle-hook & eye/eye& eye/hook & hook/eye & jaw/jaw & jaw thimbles
▪ Hydraulic bottle necks
▪ Screw-jacks
▪ Hydraulic oil drum
▪ Truck
These are essentially required to be used along with the slings, belts, wire ropes, chains, beams and the lifting machines.
Applications▪ For use in all material handling operations
▪ For use in shore cranes and deck cranes in harbour
▪ Ship yards and steel yards
▪ Cement and fertilizers plants
▪ Automobile industries
▪ Railway yards
