5 Ton Weld On Lifting Lug

Load Rating: The 5 Ton Lifting Lugs are rated to carry an applied load of 10,000 lbs. when the load is applied within the load range shown below. Allowable loading reduces to 7,500 lbs. if the load is applied at more than 20 degrees but less than 30 degrees offset to the side. When the load application is at more than 30 degrees but less than 45 degrees side offset, the rating is reduced to 5,000 lbs. Do not apply loading at offset angles exceeding 45 degrees. The strength and rigidity of the structure being lifted must also be adequate to with stand the applied loading. Localized reinforcement of gusseting may be required.

Welding: The lifting lugs have been fabricated from A36 steel and are intended for welding to similar weldable steels. Welders must be qualified and shall follow appropriate procedures in accordance with American Welding Society codes and standards. In order to develop the full load rating, the material that the lug is being welded to must have a minimum thickness of 3/8 of an inch. Weld surfaces shall be prepared by grinding or other appropriate means. All lose or thick scale, rust, moisture, grease, or other foreign material that would prevent proper welding shall be removed.

Lifting lugs are designed to be welded to compatible steel materials in order to lift them into place safely and securely.
