(941) 730-6576

At the heart of any effective safety program is a constant effort to ensure that employees have the proper knowledge and skill for all aspects of their job. Rigging and lifting clearly is an operation that has been shown to require knowledge and skills. Accidents also can harm your companies’ brand and reputation. Having a well-trained lift team can help mitigate, and possibly eliminate some of the hazards associated with using cranes. A safe lift depends on a number of people filling roles including operators, riggers, journeyman riggers, signal persons, crane owners, crane users, lift directors, supervisors, and the communication between those people.
A qualified person as to whether it constitutes a hazard. And if so, what additional steps need to be taken to address the hazard and how it can be eliminated. And, shall have a thorough education, training, experience, skill and physical ability, as necessary, be competent and capable to perform the functions as determined by the employer or employer’s representative. Sling working load limits (WLL) are based on items being in acceptable condition before being used per ASME B30.9, OSHA 1910.184 and the manufacturer’s recommendations and limitations for use.
The MAXIMUM load that shall be applied in direct tension to undamaged straight length of a sling or hoisting equipment.


Are of the utmost importance and anyone purchasing and using items must understand all warnings and other information on the product being used. Products are sold with express understanding that the purchaser is thoroughly familiar with the correct application and safe use for which they were intended.
Any product will break if abused, misused or overused. Any well-designed and well-built product can become a hazard in the hands of careless users. It is impossible to list all of the possible dangers and misapplications associated with the use of products.

Just 1 broken wire requires the sling to be removed from service!

BOLTS: All bolts should have sufficient plain length to pass through half the component. Check integrity & tightness.
NUTS: All nuts when tightened should have 2 threads protruding. All nits should be locked with Loctite grade 270, nylon insert, or self-cleaving. Check for integrity & tightness.
CHAIN: All chain should be tested in accordance with ASME B30.9 recommendations.

There have been recent changes to magnet inspections and testing that everyone needs to be aware of. The ASME 820.20-2018 standard states Lifting Magnets should have an annual Breakaway Test to verify the magnet meets its design factor.

This tension is also referred to as the
LOAD ANGLE FACTOR (L.A.F.)
IT IS CALCULATED BY DIVIDING THE S OR SLING LENGTH BY THE H OR HEIGHT TO THE SAME POINT ON THE SLING
Since 30° is the lowest horizontal sling angle that you can use when rigging, the horizontal angles on this table below start at 30°
| Horizontal Angle | Load Angle Factor |
| 30° | 2 |

Multiple slings within the body of the shackle shall not exceed 120° included angle

The maximum included angle with two or more slings is listed below for hooks, master links and shackles.
| Connections | ||

| Hooks 90° | Master links 120° | Shackles 120° |

Hooks having any of the following conditions shall be removed from service until repaired or replaced:
| Angles in Degrees | Working Load Limit Reduction |
| 0° to 10° | 0% |
| 11° to 20° | 15% |
| 21° to 30° | 25% |
| 31° to 45° | 30% |
| 46° to 55° | 40% |
| 56° to 70° | 45% |
| 71° to 90° | 50% |


Shackles can be connected together, or point loaded

Always attach the slings to the bow of the shackle, pin in the hook

The bow of the shackle should always be in the running part of the sling pin in the eye of the sling

When using a single sling, load should stay centered or capacity reductions are necessary

When using in a wire rope sling always use the next size larger
The shackle must be the next size larger than the wire rope sling diameter to achieve full capacity of the sling
ASME B30.26 has the following statement regarding screw pin shackles:
The screw pin threads shall be fully engaged and tight and the shoulder should be in contact with the shackle body.
Thus, contrary to popular belief, you should never back off the screw pin before use. The shackle pin should be a minimum of hand tight before the lift begins.


Shackles are designed and rated for in-line applied tension. You can attach multiple slings in the body of the shackle without reducing the capacity, provided that the shackle is symmetrically loaded and the included angle does not exceed 120°.
