The Machining & Welding 1000 LB 12 FT Basket Lifting Beam offers 12 feet of length and 1,000 pounds of capacity, set up for basket-style rigging.

The two sets of hooks let you rig a basket hitch around the load, which distributes weight across four legs rather than a single center pick.

A fixed length steel beam keeps this design simple, with hooks ready to accept slings without additional hardware.

This beam is purpose built for basket rigging, saving the setup time of improvising a basket hitch from a standard straight beam.

This type of lifting equipment is common in facilities that move machinery, structural steel, crates, or bulky components as part of daily operations. Rather than treating each lift as a one-off problem, a dedicated piece of equipment turns it into a routine, repeatable task that any trained operator can complete quickly and safely.

As with any lifting equipment, never exceed the rated working load limit, and inspect slings, hooks, shackles, and connection points before every use. Confirm compatibility with your hoist, crane, or trolley system before placing an order, and follow your facility's rigging and lockout procedures for every lift. A few minutes spent checking hardware condition and load balance up front is far cheaper than dealing with a dropped or shifted load later, and it keeps your team's daily routine consistent from one job to the next.

Equipment that sees daily use benefits from a quick visual check every time it comes out of storage, not just during scheduled inspections. Catching a small issue, like surface corrosion or a bent component, before it becomes a larger problem keeps rigging hardware safe and in service longer.
