Lifting, Cargo Gear & Load Testing

Lifting Equipment & Slings

Lifting equipment and sling suppliers provide the rigging gear used to sling, shackle, and secure a load for a vessel's cargo and stores handling — chain slings, wire rope slings, webbing and round slings, plus shackles, hooks, eyebolts, and lifting blocks, each rated to a certified safe working load.

This is the loose rigging gear that connects a load to a crane or derrick, distinct from the crane and cargo-handling machinery that does the lifting and from the proof-load testing and thorough examination that certifies gear periodically. Suppliers issue a certificate stating safe working load, traceable to the item's individual identification tag for chain and wire assemblies. Because slings and shackles are safety-critical and subject to wear, corrosion, and mechanical damage, buyers renew them on a condition basis and check that supplied gear carries current, traceable certification before returning it to service. It sits within the Lifting, Cargo Gear & Load Testing category group on PortProcure.

PortProcure lists 29 verified Lifting Equipment & Slings suppliers across 23 ports, including Balboa, Callao, and Cape Town. Send an RFQ to compare quotes from listed suppliers.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does the marked safe working load change with how a sling is rigged?

A sling's marked SWL applies to a straight vertical pull; using it at an angle, in a basket hitch, or as a choker reduces its effective capacity, so a rigger derates the tag value according to the actual hitch used on the job. Buyers and crews need to understand this derating themselves — reading the certificate alone doesn't tell them the safe load for every configuration.

How does a shackle's rating relate to the sling it connects?

A shackle is the connecting hardware joining a sling, hook, or padeye together, carrying its own certified SWL and identification marking independent of the sling it's paired with. Buyers order shackles as separate rated items and match the shackle's SWL to the sling and the load, rather than assuming the two components automatically share the same limit just because they're used together.

When is lifting gear replaced rather than re-certified?

Loose gear is normally replaced once thorough examination finds wear, deformation, or corrosion beyond tolerance for its rating, rather than being repaired or downgraded for continued use. That examination is carried out by a separate load-testing and inspection provider; the sling supplier's role is to have new gear ready, matched to the original specification, so a failed item can be swapped in promptly.
