The Machining & Welding 2000 LB 16 FT Basket Lifting Beam is a basket-style lift beam rated to 2,000 pounds at 16 feet, built with two sets of hooks for a four-point pick.

This beam suits pipe, coils, bundles, and other loads that benefit from a basket-style sling configuration instead of a straight vertical pick.

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

Distributing the load across four sling legs instead of two can reduce stress on individual slings.

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.

Before putting any lifting equipment into service, verify it matches your hoist or crane setup and confirm the rated capacity covers your heaviest expected load with margin to spare. Routine inspection of welds, pins, and connection hardware helps catch wear before it becomes a safety issue. Keep a simple inspection log if your facility does not already have one, since tracking wear over time makes it easier to plan replacement before a part actually fails in use.

Properly rated hardware, stored and maintained correctly, tends to outlast the equipment it gets paired with. Building a simple habit of checking condition before each use costs very little time and pays off in fewer surprises when a piece of rigging hardware is actually under load.

Full specifications are listed below so you can confirm fit against your current rigging before it ships.

The Machining & Welding 2000 LB 16 FT Basket Lifting Beam is ready to rig a secure basket hitch on your next pick.
