Load Securement & Rigging for the Rail & Transportation Industry
The Strength That Secures Global Commerce
From railcars and flatbeds to port terminals, we provide the certified chains, ropes, and hardware that ensure your cargo arrives safely, every time.
Engineered for a World in Constant Motion
The transportation industry is a constant battle against the forces of motion. Every piece of cargo on a railcar, truck, or vessel is subjected to relentless vibration, powerful acceleration and deceleration forces, and sudden shock loads.
In this fast-paced world, load securement systems must be more than just strong; they must be efficient to deploy and absolutely reliable to minimize costly turnaround times.
A single component failure doesn’t just risk damaging high-value assets; it endangers the public and can bring a critical supply chain to a halt. That’s why our solutions are engineered to meet strict transport regulations and withstand the dynamics of a world in motion.
Securing and Lifting Across the Entire Logistics Chain
Chains: The Gold Standard for Load Securement
Our Grade 70 transport chains are specifically designed for cargo lashing and tie-down applications. Their high strength-to-weight ratio, durability, and abrasion resistance make them the premier choice for securing heavy loads in dynamic transit environments.
- Trucking & Heavy Haulage: As the primary tie-down assembly on flatbed trucks for securing heavy machinery, construction materials, and other large equipment, ensuring full compliance with transport safety regulations.
- Railcar Securement: Used to lash down heavy or oversized cargo, such as military vehicles and industrial components, onto flatcars and well cars for safe, long-distance rail transit.
- Intermodal & Port Operations: For securing containers, vehicles, and break-bulk cargo on barges and vessels for coastal or inland waterway transport.
Steel Wire Rope: The Power Behind Port and Rail Lifting
In the high-volume, fast-paced environments of port terminals and rail yards, our crane ropes provide the strength and exceptional fatigue resistance needed for thousands of demanding lifting cycles.
- Port & Terminal Cranes: Serving as the main hoist ropes on Ship-to-Shore (STS) cranes, Rail-Mounted Gantry (RMG) cranes, and Rubber-Tired Gantry (RTG) cranes for continuous, efficient container and cargo handling.
- Railroad Recovery & Maintenance: As the main winch and hoist lines on railroad wreckers and maintenance-of-way (MOW) cranes used for clearing derailments and performing heavy trackside repair work.
Hardware & Accessories: The Essential Tools for a Secure Connection
A securement system is only effective with the right hardware to apply and maintain tension. We offer a full range of rugged, easy-to-use components designed for the realities of the road and rail.
- Load Binders: A complete selection of ratchet and lever-type load binders, designed to work seamlessly with our Grade 70 chains to apply the precise, verifiable tension needed to secure your load.
- Hooks & Connection Points: A wide array of forged grab hooks, slip hooks, and shackles designed for creating secure attachment points on vehicles, railcars, and cargo.
- Turnbuckles & Lashings: Used for tensioning and securing specialized loads where precise and sustained tension is required, often found in rail and marine applications.
Your Partner in Transit Safety and Compliance
We understand that your reputation is on the line with every shipment. The safe and timely arrival of cargo depends entirely on the integrity and reliability of your securement and lifting equipment. We are dedicated to being the partner that protects your assets, your people, and your schedule.
- Full Regulatory Compliance: Our load securement products, including our Grade 70 transport chains and binders, are manufactured to meet or exceed strict Department of Transportation (DOT) and other transport regulations, ensuring your shipments are always compliant.
- Engineered for the Long Haul: Our components are not just strong; they are built to endure the relentless vibration, shock loads, and wear of long-haul transit. This focus on durability minimizes in-transit failures and protects your high-value cargo.
- Reliability for Efficient Operations: We provide easy-to-inspect, trusted components that enable faster, safer loading and unloading. This reliability is key to minimizing turnaround times and keeping your entire supply chain moving on schedule.
