TE-CO offers a wide variety of aircraft-grade hoist rings that provide solutions when lifting heavy loads, regardless of the industry. TE-CO hoist ring styles include pivoting or swiveling units that prevent twisting or tangling of the lifting chains, enhancing ease of use and operator safety, as well as TE-CO hoist rings help eliminate the chance of pitch, roll and sway when lifting and transporting loads, preventing injury to operators and valuable equipment.
Each hoist ring is 200% proof load tested, has a safety factor of 5:1, and has its own serial number for traceability.

for Hoist Rings & Material Handling
Hoist rings are connected to threaded holes on tooling, equipment or other heavy items, creating a safe and secure attachment point for lifting systems such as overhead cranes and lifts, hoists, chains and slings.
The ring portion of the hoist ring assembly can pivot or swivel to help accommodate shifts in alignment and load direction, which is critical in heavy-lifting applications. Simpler lifting hardware, such as eyebolts, can only handle a load that aligns with the bolt, while hoist rings can accommodate loads pulling at various angles.
Hoist rings serve lifting and rigging applications in various industries ranging from oil and gas to construction and manufacturing.
TE-CO safety-engineered hoist rings feature designs optimized for safe lifting and are manufactured from AISI 4140 aircraft-quality steel and 316 series stainless steel. They are also 200% proof-load tested, 100% magnetic particle inspected and produced with traceable serial numbers.
With the ability to pivot 180 degrees and swivel a full 360 degrees, swivel hoist rings can lift a load from any angle or direction. These rings are the most common designs for industrial use and work best when lifting from the load’s center. The oversized bales of our large-opening swivel hoist rings are compatible with various hook styles and sizes.
The difference between conventional and side-load hoist rings is that side-load rings lift and pull loads laterally instead of from the top. Our side-load hoist ring selection contains aircraft-quality alloys and extra-large rings.
Forged hoist rings pivot 180 degrees but do not rotate. They include a fixed mounting plate that holds the ring secure.
With an extra large ring, these ring styles accept many styles/sizes of hoist hooks.
Eliminate the need for screws by using pivot lifting plates, which include a rugged tapered plate which can be welded into position.
These are perfect for pre-cast concrete products where a threaded anchor or stud can be cast into the concrete part.
Used in conjunction with large trench plates in street and roadway projects. The street plate lifting ring lugs are used for tightening and loosening with a hammer or street bar.
TE-CO safety-engineered hoist ring kits include everything you need to create a customized hoist ring specific to your application, including E-rings, washers, screws and bushings.

TE-CO & Raptor Workholding are a preferred supplier for Travers Tool, providing not just high-quality products, but also outstanding support. The TE-CO & Raptor Team are consistently responsive, helpful, and a pleasure to work with.
We produce our uprights and all of our suspension components in-house. So having access to high-quality CNC workholding solutions is really important to our team. Without TE-CO, our members wouldn’t be able to get the experiences that they do manufacturing products and taking a component from design all the way through manufacturing.
Before investing in the Raptor workholding system from TE-CO, we lacked the ability to use the same style dovetail holder in different machines and move parts around without worry. The Raptor dovetail holders securely hold even very complex parts without failure and we are quite impressed with its rigidity and accuracy. Furthermore, it has a bolt pattern that matches our pallets so there’s no need to create adapter plates or design and develop special fixturing. Perhaps best of all, the Raptor’s lower initial cost compared to other solutions paid for itself within the first few jobs we did. It’s been a very positive experience overall.
The single station vises were great vises to get started with and continue to be useful on low volume work. Very affordable, easy to use and bulletproof. They did everything I needed in a high-mix, low volume environment.
And, the 6-inch Toolex vises have been a complete game changer with some of our higher volume work. I am getting 4- to 8-times the through put on the machine depending on the setup. They are extremely rigid and quick-change jaws have been awesome to work with. The chip covers also work extremely well at keeping things clean and preventing small chips from building up in the vises.
Prioritizing safety and ensuring proper placement is crucial when using any specific hoist ring design. Operators should also inspect each component for wear and damage before each use, including the threaded hole. In addition, operators should only use hoist rings within their rated load limit to prevent overloading or failure.
