Actek Lifting Equipment
Actek Manufacturing sets the standard for heavy-duty lifting points. Engineered and manufactured in the USA, Actek Swivel Hoist Rings are designed to replace static eyebolts, offering 360° rotation and 180° pivot capabilities to prevent shear failure. From 2,000 lbs to 100,000 lbs capacity, Actek provides the certified safety your critical lifts demand.
Actek Lifting & Rigging Products
When lifting heavy machinery, molds, or dies, using a standard eyebolt can be a recipe for disaster. If the load shifts or is lifted at an angle, a static eyebolt can bend or snap. Actek Manufacturing solves this problem with their line of Safety Engineered Swivel Hoist Rings.
Holloway Houston Inc. stocks a massive inventory of Actek lifting points. Whether you need a standard UNC thread ring for domestic machinery or a Metric thread point for imported equipment, we have the precise hardware to ensure a safe, compliant lift.
The Actek Advantage: Rotation & Safety
Why switch from eyebolts to Actek Hoist Rings ?
- 360° Swivel & 180° Pivot : Actek rings are designed to move with the load. The bail pivots 180 degrees and the base swivels 360 degrees, ensuring the load force is always applied in the strongest plane of the hardware.
- Full WLL at Any Angle : Unlike eyebolts, which lose significant capacity when lifting at an angle (e.g., 45°), Actek rings maintain their full rated capacity regardless of the pull direction.
- Safety Factor : All standard Actek hoist rings are designed with a 5:1 Safety Factor (Minimum Breaking Strength is 5 times the Working Load Limit).
Product Configurations
1. Swivel Hoist Rings (UNC & Metric)
The industry standard for tooling and heavy equipment.
- UNC Series : We stock coarse thread sizes ranging from small tooling rings (2,000 lbs WLL) to massive heavy-lift points (100,000 lbs WLL).
- Metric Series : A complete range of ISO metric thread sizes from 250 kg to 44,600 kg.
- Torque : Proper installation is critical. All rings feature the required torque value permanently stamped on the washer.
2. Side Pull & Side Load Rings
Designed for specific mounting challenges.
- Side Pull : Ideal for flipping dies or molds where the lifting point is mounted on the side of the load rather than the top.
- Safety Engineered : Features a heavy-duty retention screw and components magnetic particle inspected for cracks.
Quality Assurance
Actek is known for rigorous quality control standards, ensuring every lifting point performs when it matters most.
- Proof Testing : Hoist rings are proof-load tested to 200% of their rated capacity.
- Inspection : Components undergo Magnetic Particle Inspection (MPI) to detect surface fractures.
- Finish : Available in Black Oxide (standard) or Plated finishes for corrosion resistance.
- Traceability : Every unit is marked with a unique serial number and WLL for full traceability.
