Swivel Lifting Rings From Wixroyd
What is...
Swivel Lifting Rings are fixed to an object for lifting and will swivel under its load to allow freedom of movement for the hoisted object. Wixroyd offer doubly articulated swivel rings for better alignment with the sling and triply articulated rings to allow a hook to move parallel with the supporting face. Our Swivel Lifting Rings also feature very low overhangs and large supported surfaces for improved safety. They are ideal for use in warehouses and building sites where an application needs to be hoisted on a regular basis.
To ensure the safe use and correct application of all our Swivel Lifting Ring products, please refer to our comprehensive technical page. Our CAD library also features models for our Swivel Lifting Ring products to help save you time planning.

Swivel Lifting Rings operating instructions.
Please follow these instructions carefully.
- Ensure all lifting bolts are CE marked.
- Ensure they are handled by qualified personnel.
- Refer to the operating instructions particularly with regards to product selection, any possibility of the load swiveling, the effect of lifting angles on the load capacity (see relevant tables), etc.
- Never allow any personnel underneath a suspended load.
- Always heed the load rating of the lifting bolt.
- Always perform a visual inspection of the lifting rings prior to use. Checking for any damage to thread and/or swivelling system. Check for wear or corrosion, signs of stress or bending. Check CE mark and load rating.
- Ensure a yearly full service inspection is performed.
- Always ensure the full bottom face of the lifting bolts is in contact with a smooth, square surface.
- Ensure bolt is tightened to the correct torque.
- Ensure full and unrestricted movement of the lifting ring in all directions.
- Before each lift, ensure the correct orientation of the shackle in the lift direction.
- Avoid using our standard steel lifting rings in corrosive environments eg sandy, chemical, acid, moisture etc. In this case, consider using our stainless steel lifting rings.
- Note the thread length requirements:
- 1 x thread diameter for steel (ST37 min.).
- 1.25 x thread diameter for cast iron.
- 2 x thread diameter for aluminium.
- 2.5 x thread diameter for other light metals.
- If fixing into low resistance material, it is better to allow for a bigger diameter thread to compensate for the lower material resistance.
Note: The full thread must be engaged. Longer thread lengths can be supplied on request or a bolt and washer/nut combination can be used.
