Carr Lane Manufacturing, a provider of tooling components, industrial parts & fixture, announces the Hoist Eye 360 — a forged lifting eye that can be rotated 360 degrees after installation, to align with the pulling direction.
This compact assembly features a specially designed shoulder bolt, which rotates freely in the precisely machined lifting-eye body and is held captive by a retaining ring.
Unlike conventional lifting eyes, Hoist Eye 360 can be used at full rated load capacity when pulling at any angle (from 0 to 90° degrees) from the bolt axis. Available with thread sizes from 3/8-16 to 1”-8, Hoist Eye 360 complies with ASME B30.26 specifications and is 200% proof load tested, with a safety factor of 5:1.
Hoist Eye 360 is suitable only for applications where all lifting-eye rotation takes place before lifting begins, with no swivel action occurring while under load. For applications that require swiveling under load, use a Swivel Hoist Ring instead.
