Built from ply steel, the Machining & Welding 6 IN 4-Ply Steel Triangle is a triangle fitting sized at 6 in, rated to 165,000 lbs.

Triangle fittings suit vertical hitch connections, while choker fittings are shaped to accept a return pass of the sling body for a choker hitch.

The fitting is manufactured to the stated material and rating specification, with a bearing surface sized to distribute load evenly across the sling body it connects to.

Every fitting in an assembly needs its own traceable rating, since the weakest link determines what the whole sling can safely lift.

Equipment like this shows up across a wide range of industries, from steel fabrication and machine shops to warehousing, construction, and vehicle service centers. Anywhere crews need to move a load overhead in a controlled, repeatable way, a purpose-built lift beam or crane keeps the job safer and faster than improvised rigging. Once a facility standardizes on the right lifting equipment for its typical loads, operators spend less time rigging and more time actually getting work done.

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.

Durability matters as much as initial capacity when choosing rigging equipment, since hardware that wears unevenly or corrodes quickly ends up costing more over its service life. Choosing components built to recognized manufacturing standards is one of the simplest ways to avoid that added cost down the road.

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