How to Specify Rigging Hardware for Quotation
How to Evaluate a Rigging Hardware Manufacturer or Supplier
When qualifying a rigging hardware supplier, evaluate whether the manufacturer can meet the exact product specification, quality requirements, documentation requirements, and delivery conditions for your order. The assessment should be based on the specific products and project requirements involved.
- Product range and application fit: Confirm that the supplier can provide the required rigging hardware types, sizes, grades, and configurations without unsuitable substitutions.
- Rated data and product markings: Verify the exact model or part designation, WLL or rated capacity, dimensions, material or grade, and required identification markings.
- Manufacturing and quality control: Review the relevant forging, heat treatment, machining, coating, inspection, and testing controls for the products being purchased.
- Traceability and documentation: Specify any heat or batch traceability, material certificates, test reports, inspection records, or other documentation required with the order.
- Third-party inspection: Define any independent inspection, testing, or witnessing requirements before the purchase order is confirmed.
- OEM and custom capability: For special dimensions, drawings, markings, packaging, or private-label requirements, see our custom and OEM rigging hardware capabilities.
- Packaging and logistics: Specify packaging, labeling, destination, shipping terms, and delivery requirements so quotations can be compared on the same basis.
Manufacturing, Testing, and Documentation: What to Verify
Manufacturing and quality requirements can vary by product type, material, grade, applicable standard, and order specification. Depending on the product, production may include forging, heat treatment, machining, surface finishing, inspection, and testing. The required process controls, test methods, traceability, and documentation should therefore be confirmed for the specific item being ordered.
When preparing an RFQ, specify any documentation and quality requirements that apply to the order, including product markings, heat or batch traceability, inspection records, test reports, certificates, and third-party inspection or witnessing requirements. The applicable documentation package and testing scope should be confirmed in the quotation and purchase specification.
Standards, Ratings, and Product Verification
For rigging hardware used in the U.S. market, applicable standards and regulatory requirements depend on the product, application, and work environment. ASME B30.26 covers several categories of detachable rigging hardware used in load-handling applications, including shackles, links, rings, swivels, turnbuckles, eyebolts, hoist rings, wire rope clips, wedge sockets, and rigging blocks.
For construction activities covered by OSHA requirements, 29 CFR 1926.251 includes provisions for rigging equipment used in material handling, including inspection, identification, and rated-load markings, removal of defective equipment from service, and requirements affecting shackles, hooks, slings, and related attachments.
Standards and regulatory references should not be treated as confirmation that every product is suitable or compliant for every application. Before ordering or use, verify the exact product specification, WLL or rated capacity, markings, dimensions, documentation, and intended application against the applicable standard, project specification, and regulatory requirements.

Rigging Hardware FAQs
Which rigging hardware is designed for vertical pulls?
Shouldered eye bolts, rated hoist rings, shackles, hooks and other lifting points may be suitable for a straight vertical pull when their WLL, loading direction, connection and manufacturer instructions match the lift. Unshouldered eye bolts are generally limited to in-line loading. See our focused guide to rigging hardware for vertical pulls before choosing a component.
Can every shackle, hook or turnbuckle be used for overhead lifting?
No. Similar-looking hardware can be made for lifting, lashing, towing, tensioning, marine or general-purpose service. Use a component for overhead lifting only when it is rated, marked, documented and permitted by the manufacturer for that application.
Do you supply proof-tested rigging hardware?
Proof or load testing is available for applicable products and orders. Specify the required test load, sampling level, acceptance criteria, witness or third-party requirement and certificate format before quotation. Breaking-load testing can also be discussed when the order requires validation beyond routine proof testing.
How do I choose between galvanized and stainless-steel rigging hardware?
Choose by environment, rating and product specification. Galvanized carbon or alloy steel is widely used for outdoor industrial service, while stainless steel is selected where corrosion resistance is a priority. Confirm that the chosen product—not just the material—has the required rating and documentation.
What documents can be supplied with an order?
Depending on the product and agreed order scope, documentation can include material certificates, test certificates, dimensional or inspection reports, batch traceability records, packing lists and third-party inspection reports. List every required document in the RFQ so availability and cost can be confirmed.
Can you manufacture rigging hardware from my drawing?
Yes. Send the drawing or sample with the intended function, load direction, material, dimensions, finish, quantity, marking, testing and documentation requirements. We will review manufacturability and identify any points that must be confirmed before production.
Need a Rigging Hardware Quote or Selection Review?
Send your product list, drawing or project specification. Tell us the required WLL or size, connection details, finish, quantity, destination and documents. We will review the request and confirm the available product route before quoting.
