Product types and selection

Product Types

  • Lifting sockets and anchors: threaded lifting sockets, fixing sockets, capstan, spread and two-hole anchors cast into precast elements.
  • Lifting equipment: threaded lifting loops, Goliath lifting loops, lifting shackles and ring clutches.
  • Recess formers: reusable formers that create the anchor recess in the formwork.
  • Socket accessories: nailing plates that hold sockets on the formwork and caps that close the finished recess.

Choosing a System

Anchor, lifting device and former are chosen together by load group or thread size. Pair each lifting device with an anchor of the correct load capacity, and size anchors against the lifting design for the element.
