Bolt Down Ball Bearing Swivel Load Ring with Metric or Imperial Thread.
GBBR-4927




The Ball-bearing Lifting Point (BLP) is a very versatile lifting point and suits most applications. The ball-bearing in the BLP allows the load to be easily rotated during the lift, which is especially good when maintenance is needed on heavy tools and other types of equipment.
In cases where both tilting and rotation under heavy load with a multiple legged sling is required (e.g. turning an object from one side to the other) the BLP is the ideal choice. The stable base handles torque excellently and the ballbearing make sure that the lifting point will position itself correctly at all times.
The distance between ring and load makes the BLP an excellent choice for press tools, allowing tools to be turned and tilted. The housing (RFID prepared) of the BLP is drop-forged for increased strength and has a hexagon shape for easy mounting and dismounting.
If the load surface is sensitive to impacts or scratches, the BLP is a good choice as it builds out from the load so the lifting ring clashing / dropping on and damaging the material being lifted.
To choose the right lifting point for an operation can be a challenge, since most lifting points can be used for several purposes. Safety is of course the highest priority, therefore has each BLP been proof loaded 2.5 times the WLL.
- Reduces the chance of damaging the load surface.
- Can be tilted and turned.
- Ball Bearing allows for easy rotation of the load.
Typical Applications
- Handling of tools for pressing, molding and forging.
- Gearbox inspection in auto repair shop.
- Installation of finished panels in passenger lifts at construction site.
- Assembly of boat engines.
- Automobile assembly line.
- Production and handling of turbo machinery.
- Chain and Hook NOT supplied.
