Description

Te-Co ensures that the materials used on all our Hoist Ring products meet or exceed the safety requirements for lifting. The safe working loads listed are based upon a new or “as new” condition product. A safe working load is considered to be the greatest load that should be applied to an item at any time.

In order to insure the safest lifting, and all for safety purposes, Te-Co Hoist Rings must be properly used and maintained. Hoist rings are subject to wear, corrosion, deformation, overloading, and other limiting factors, which may affect the safe working load. Prior to use, any Te-Co Hoist Ring product should be regularly inspected to determine if it may be used, or whether it should removed from service.

It is the responsibility of the user to inspect all lifting units for signs of wear, and to discard any parts that show visible signs of wear. Every user should establish a routine safety inspection program for visual inspection of all products to determine whether signs of wear (e.g. cracks, corrosion, deformation) are present. The product inspection schedule should be established based upon factors such as frequency of use, period of use, and environment. Please read information from Te-Co regarding Hoist Ring safety that may be found in the Description.
