Jergens 23405 Center Pull Hoist Ring 800 Lb 5/16-18

Product Description

The JERGENS 23405 is a safety engineered center pull hoist ring rated for 800 pounds load capacity. It uses a 5/16-18 thread with a 1/4-inch thread engagement length and requires 7 ft-lb installation torque. Constructed from alloy steel, this hoist ring is designed to swivel and pivot under load, keeping the lifting force centered regardless of load shift. Millwrights, maintenance technicians, and rigging crews install this type of hardware when lifting machinery, dies, molds, and heavy equipment components where a fixed eyebolt would introduce unsafe angular loading.

This hoist ring is suited for industrial and manufacturing environments where precise, repeatable lifting points are required. Typical applications include machine tool lifting, mold handling, heavy fabrication, and equipment positioning in production facilities. The center pull design allows the ring to rotate 360 degrees and pivot 180 degrees, which keeps the load path aligned through the centerline of the fastener and reduces bending stress on the threaded connection during lift operations.

Key Features

• 800 lb rated load capacity with safety engineered center pull design
• Alloy steel construction for high strength in demanding lift applications
• 5/16-18 thread size for secure fastening into tapped holes
• 7 ft-lb installation torque requirement for consistent preload
• Ring pivots and swivels to maintain centered load path under angular pulls
• Compact profile with 1.84-inch external ring width suits tight clearance applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style lifting point fastener for machinery, tooling, and fabricated components with 5/16-18 tapped holes requiring a rated center pull hoist ring.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights or qualified rigging personnel following applicable ASME B30 lifting hardware standards. Thread the hoist ring into a clean, properly tapped hole and torque to 7 ft-lb using a calibrated torque wrench before any lift is attempted. Inspect the ring, thread engagement, and base material condition before each use. Never exceed the rated load capacity and do not use a damaged or deformed hoist ring.
