About Lifting and Rigging Attachments
Lifting and rigging attachments are used on a crane or hoist between the hook and the item to be lifted. Lifting and rigging attachments must be properly configured for the weight of the load, the type of crane or hoist, and the type of chain, rope, or hook being used to lift the load. There are many different product types. Choices include: C-hooks, clamps, fork tines, grapples, lifters, magnet lifters, shells or buckets, sling release systems, spreader beams, tongs or grabs, vacuum lifters and weighing equipment. Maximum load capacity, maximum lifting volume, and application or use are important specifications to consider.
Lifting and rigging attachments include a wide variety of components, such as lifting magnets, beam and girder clamps, plate clamps, grabs and tongs, spreader beams, specialty latches, and other fittings designed for use with slings. A load leveler or an end fitting is commonly used as a sling attachment to stabilize the load. Forklifts can be fitted with lifting and rigging attachments such as booms, rams, and extensions to augment the lift’s reach, or drum grippers and rotators. A hoist attachment that works between the hook and the load includes a coil lifter, tongs, spreader beams, and pallet lifters. Special hoist rings are also designed to handle different types of lifting configurations, such as a side load.
