The fixed base provides added stability and allows you to lift heavy loads with smaller thread sizes. Designed for angular lifting, hoist rings resist stresses that would bend or break an eyebolt. They have a lifting ring that pivots 180° front to back to compensate for roll and sway when lifting heavy or unbalanced loads. Install the base of the hoist ring flush to the mounting surface and tighten to the recommended torque that is stamped on the ring. Torque wrenches are sold separately.
D-shape hoist rings have a wide end, so it’s easy to attach webbing and large hooks.
Triangle hoist rings have a narrow end to keep chain in place.
Black-oxide steel hoist rings have mild corrosion resistance.
Note: Capacities listed are for vertical lifting only. As the lift angle changes from vertical, the amount of weight the hoist ring can lift is significantly reduced. For example, when lifting a 1,000 lb. load at a 45° angle, you must choose a hoist ring with a capacity of at least 1,400 lbs. Do not use at an angle less than 30°.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

For a more secure hold than standard hoist rings, weld these hoist rings to your load. They’re ideal for angular lifting because they withstand stresses that bend or break eyebolts.
The ring on 180° pivot hoist rings moves from front to back. Their base does not swivel for added stability.
Note: Hoist rings must be welded properly for the listed capacities to apply.
Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Easily slip these hoist rings in and out of threaded holes by pushing the button to retract their threads. Install them flush to your mounting surface. Ideal for angular lifting, these hoist rings withstand stresses that break or bend eyebolts.
All are CE marked, so they meet European safety standards.

Sleeve Splines and Bearings
![](/prerenderstable/mvPRE/contents/gfx/imagecache/413/4134n33-roc-@halfx_1684756360.png?ver=imagenotfound)
Often used in wet and dirty environments, these sleeve splines and bearings create a compact linear and rotary motion system. The grooves on the splines transmit rotary power as the sleeve bearing moves freely along their length. Sleeve bearings don't have moving parts that can be damaged from dirt and debris. And they don't need to be lubricated, making them overall lower maintenance than ball bearings.
Splines are PTFE coated to reduce friction, so bearings slide smoothly and last longer. They’re stainless steel, so they won’t rust.
Bearings are plastic with a bronze shell, so they won't rust. Threaded bearings allow you to mount your load directly to the bearing. Anti-backlash bearings minimize the space (play) between the bearing and spline for more accurate, repeatable positioning.
Flanges work with threaded bearings to give you a surface with mounting holes to attach your load.
