Swivel ring universal rings, also known as 8-figure rings or swivel eyes, are mechanical components commonly used in various industries for connecting, securing, and swiveling loads. They are designed to allow rotation and reduce twisting in rigging systems, making them ideal for applications where flexibility and movement are required.
Carbon Steel: Typically used for general applications.
Stainless Steel: For environments where corrosion resistance is required.
Alloy Steels: Used in applications requiring high strength or high temperature resistance.
Advantage:
Swiveling Action: The swivel action allows for 360-degree rotation, which can reduce stress and wear on connected ropes or cables.
Load Distribution: The design helps in distributing the load evenly, minimizing the risk of damage to the rigging system.
Versatility: Used in a variety of applications, including agriculture, equestrian equipment, fencing, and safety products, as well as general industrial use.
Safety: High-quality manufacturing standards ensure that these rings can handle the specified load capacities, providing a safe and reliable connection point.
Scope of Application
Rigging and Lifting: For use in cranes, hoists, and other lifting equipment where the ability to swivel can reduce the risk of cable tangling or twisting.
Marine Applications: On boats and other marine vessels, swivel rings can be used to secure lines and allow for movement.
Construction: In construction, they can be used for securing temporary structures or as part of a lifting system.
Industrial Equipment: In various industrial settings, swivel rings can be used to connect and secure machinery or equipment that requires movement.
