Sized for 1/2 inch wire rope, the Machining & Welding 36000 LB Concrete Pipe Teacup carries a 36,000 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.

This is purpose-built equipment for a specific handling challenge, and it speeds up pipe placement compared to rigging each section by hand.

From production floors to rail yards to municipal utility crews, this style of equipment gets used wherever a load needs to move safely between two points. Standardizing on purpose-built lifting equipment also makes training new operators easier, since the rigging setup stays consistent from lift to lift instead of changing based on whatever hardware happens to be nearby.

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.

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.
