Sized for 1/8 inch wire rope, the Machining & Welding 20000 LB Concrete Pipe Teacup carries a 20,000 pound working load limit for concrete pipe handling.

Precast concrete producers and utility contractors use teacup fittings like this to move pipe sections from casting yards onto trucks and into trenches.

Steel construction and a shape matched to standard pipe bells keep this fitting secure throughout the lift.

Matching the fitting to your wire rope diameter keeps the whole rigging assembly rated correctly for the pipe you are moving.

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.

Rigging hardware like this sees repeated use, so look for equipment that is properly rated, clearly marked, and traceable to a manufacturer that stands behind its specifications. Keeping documentation on hand for each piece of equipment also makes routine inspections and any future certification requirements easier to manage.

The specifications below cover everything you need to check compatibility with your equipment.
