PCS Company’s CODIPRO mold-lifting rings with hoist rings and eyebolts are available with simple, double or triple articulation.
PCS Company’s CODIPRO mold-lifting rings can ease handling and movement of molds and dies within a facility. PCS notes that CODIPRO’s hoist rings and eyebolts can swivel, and are available with simple, double or triple articulation. If physical space in a facility is limited, CODIPRO’s swivel action design can make handling and moving molds and dies more efficient.
Available in male configurations and special thread options, CODIPRO hoist rings are available in five different styles. The CODIPRO Central Safety Shackle (CSS) is a screw-in ring designed for linear lifting, with ample room for the shackle to pass through; a 55-ton working load limit; and safety factor 4.
CODIPRO Double Swivel Ring (DSR) and the Double Swivel Shackle (DSS) are designed for easy rotations under load, with swivel capabilities of 180° and a rotating range of 360°. DSR lifting rings are equipped with a protective crossbar and both styles are approved for all lifting configurations from 0 to 90°. Metric and inch sizes are available in original and stainless steel materials.
CODIPRO Metric QLR (Quick Lift Ring) or Metric QL.DSR is a double swivel ring with fast mounting via a clicking mechanism versus screwing the device in. Its working load limit ranges from 0.25 to 2.5 tons, with a safety factor 5.
CODIPRO Swivel Eye Bolt (SEB) is a single swivel lifting ring that is equipped with a self-orientation system that guides it in the sling direction. Designed to perform lifts, including load rotation, the SEB allows the hook to move parallel to the ring’s bearing surface when lifting at 90°. It is can be used for straight and angle lifts, as well as tilting and rotating, with inch and metric sizes, and availability in solid stainless steel.
