Street Plate / Construction
Actek Mfg. & Eng. Inc. hoist rings are manufactured using the best AISI 4140 Aircraft Grade Chrome-Moly available. All of our 4140 material is metallurgically analyzed and certified. All of our hoist rings are heat treated to MIL-H-6875 and magnetic particle inspected to accordance with ASME Section 5, Article 7. Actek hoist rings meet or exceed all the requirements of ASME B30.26. Hoist rings are also available with AISI 4130 Chrome-Moly for weldable applications.
The hoist rings for construction use are specifically designed to endure outdoor applications, including specific applications hoist rings for trench plate/street plate lifting, tilt up concrete, culvert, and precast concrete liftings.
Actek Mfg. & Eng. Inc. introduced a Street Plate Lifting Ring working in conjunction with the safety engineers of a large public utility company. These patented Street Plate Lifting Rings enable faster and safer handling of heavy steel plates commonly used to cover trenches and excavations in streets and roadways during construction or repair.
Because these rings can swivel 360° and pivot 180°, the rigger can leave the ring on the hook while attaching it into the steel plate, and the operator can pull at any angle without compromising the strength.
Fabricated of heat treated, magnetic particle inspected and certified 4140 aircraft quality, chrome-moly steel, the street plate lifting rings provide a 5:1 safety factor at maximum rated load. Models are available in 5,000, 10,000 and 15,000 pound ranges. They are designed for quick, simple attachment with the star-shaped drive lugs for easy tightening and removal; no tools are required. There are no loose pins or clips to break or fall out.
Furthermore, the Street Plate Lifting System was designed specifically with safety in mind. The Lifting Rings and Nuts are manufactured to work in conjunction with each other to ensure proper usage. Matching the nuts or studs with those from other suppliers is not recommended. Commercially available nuts may not meet the specific tolerances required for lifting heavy load.
