Lifting Loop: Industry Application, Technical Features and Safety Standards

January 22, 2025

 

Lifting Loop is one of the common and key lifting tools in the field of industrial lifting. It has a simple design but can bear huge pressure and is widely used in industries such as construction, manufacturing, and energy. Lifting Loop is usually used in conjunction with lifting equipment such as cranes and hoists to bear and lift various heavy objects. Whether in the construction of high-rise buildings or in the handling of heavy equipment in factories, the Lifting Loop plays an indispensable role.


Lifting Loop is not just a load-bearing tool. Its design, manufacturing process, safety standards, and usage methods need to be strictly controlled to ensure the safety and efficiency of the working process. This article will explore the basic components, manufacturing process, technical specifications, application areas, safety of Lifting loops, and why HULK Metal was chosen as a partner.

 

Basic components and types of Lifting Loop

 

Main components

 

The core components of Lifting Loop usually include steel rings (Loop), connectors (such as bolts or welded interfaces), and connection holes. The steel ring is its load-bearing structure, usually made of high-strength steel to ensure sufficient load-bearing capacity. The connector is fixed to the steel ring by threading or welding technology to ensure its stability and durability. The connection hole is the key part of the connection between the lifting loop and the lifting equipment and is usually designed to match the standard specifications of the hook or other lifting tools.

 

Comparison with other lifting tools

 

Compared with the Lifting Eye and Lifting Ring, the Lifting Loop usually has a simpler design and higher load-bearing capacity. Lifting Eye is mostly used for smaller equipment, while the Lifting Ring is common on occasions where angle adjustment is required. Lifting Loop is suitable for various heavy lifting tasks with its high efficiency and sturdiness, especially in the construction and manufacturing fields.


The manufacturing process and material selection of the Lifting Loop

 

Raw material selection

 

The material selection of the Lifting Loop is crucial because it directly affects the safety and reliability of the lifting equipment. Commonly used materials include carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, etc. High-strength alloy steel is widely used in Lifting loops that bear heavy loads due to its excellent strength and durability. In order to meet the use requirements of different environments, the surface of the Lifting Loop is usually galvanized, sprayed, etc. to improve its corrosion resistance.

 

High-strength steel

 

High-strength steel performs well in load-bearing capacity and fatigue resistance and is the main material of the Lifting Loop. It can withstand extreme tension and pressure to ensure the smooth progress of the lifting task.

 

Alloy steel

 

Alloy steel usually contains elements such as chromium, nickel, and molybdenum, which makes the Lifting Loop have stronger corrosion resistance and high-temperature resistance and is suitable for lifting work in harsh environments.

 

Stainless steel

 

Stainless steel Lifting Loop is often used in applications that require high corrosion resistance, such as petroleum, chemical industry, and marine engineering.

 

Manufacturing process

 

The manufacturing process of the Lifting Loop includes multiple steps such as forging, welding, and heat treatment. Each step is crucial and directly determines the strength, durability, and reliability of the Lifting Loop.

 

Hot forging process

 

The use of hot forging technology can give the Lifting Loop higher tensile strength when carrying heavy loads. Through forging, the grain structure of the material is more uniform, thereby improving its overall mechanical properties.

 

Precision machining

 

Precision machining technology ensures the dimensional accuracy and structural stability of the Lifting Loop. Through CNC machining equipment, each Lifting Loop can be precisely machined to ensure its perfect fit when used with other equipment.

 

Welding and assembly

 

The welding process ensures that the various components of the Lifting Loop are tightly connected and can maintain the stability and firmness of the structure under high loads.

 

Tension and load capacity

 

The tension and load capacity of the Lifting Loop directly affects the safety of the lifting task. Depending on the type of load and the usage scenario, the tension and load capacity of the Lifting Loop can range from a few tons to tens of tons. When choosing a suitable Lifting Loop, the following factors must be considered:


Load weight: Choose a suitable Lifting Loop according to the weight of the hoisted object.


Safety factor: Usually, the design of the Lifting Loop reserves a certain safety factor to cope with the dynamic load that may occur during the lifting process.

 

Application fields of Lifting Loop

 

Construction and heavy machinery fields

 

In the construction field, Lifting Loop is widely used in the hoisting process of concrete components and steel structure components. Especially in high-rise buildings and large infrastructure projects, Lifting Loop plays a vital role. Its load-bearing capacity and structural stability ensure the smooth progress of the hoisting process and avoid accidents.

 

Energy industry: oil, natural gas, etc.

 

In the energy industry, a Lifting Loop is used to lift large equipment and components, such as the installation and maintenance of oil drilling platforms and the hoisting of large generator sets. Since the equipment in the energy industry is usually heavy and has high requirements for corrosion resistance, Lifting Loop needs to meet higher standards in material selection and surface treatment.

 

Manufacturing and warehousing logistics

 

In the manufacturing and warehousing logistics fields, the Lifting Loop is often used for equipment handling on production lines, as well as the stacking and handling of heavy objects in warehouses. Due to the frequent hoisting operations in these environments, the durability and safety of the Lifting Loop are particularly important.


Safety and Maintenance of the Lifting Loop

 

Safety Operation Guidelines

 

When using the Lifting Loop for lifting operations, strict operating guidelines must be followed to ensure the safety of the operator. The following are some basic safety operation precautions:


· Overload prohibition: Make sure that the lifting load does not exceed the rated load of the Lifting Loop.


· Check the integrity of the ring: Before use, check whether the Lifting Loop has cracks, corrosion, or damage.


· Correctly match the hook: Make sure that the Lifting Loop and the hook of the lifting equipment are perfectly matched to avoid accidents caused by improper matching.

 

Regular inspection and maintenance

 

In order to extend the service life of the Lifting Loop, regular inspection and maintenance are essential. The key points of the inspection include:

Crack detection: Use ultrasonic or magnetic particle detection technology to check whether the Lifting Loop has hidden cracks.

Wear and corrosion: Check the wear and corrosion of the ring body, and repair or replace it in time.

Surface treatment: Regularly check the integrity of the galvanized or sprayed coating to ensure that its surface treatment layer is not peeled off or damaged to prevent corrosion from affecting the load-bearing capacity.

In addition, the connection parts of the Lifting Loop need to be checked to ensure that all connections and welding points are free of looseness or cracks. Regular lubrication and maintenance will help reduce damage caused by friction and wear and ensure long-term stable operation of the equipment.
