Jergens 23424 Center Pull Hoist Ring 8000 Lb 7/8-9

Product Description

The JERGENS 23424 is a safety engineered center pull hoist ring rated for 8,000 pounds load capacity. It is designed for use in lifting and rigging applications where a centered, swiveling pull point is required on machined or fabricated assemblies. The ring features a 7/8-9 thread with a 1.25-inch thread length and is manufactured from 4140 alloy steel with a black oxide finish. Installation requires 160 ft/lb of torque to properly seat the mounting bolt. Licensed millwrights, maintenance technicians, and rigging professionals are the primary installers of this component.

This hoist ring is suited for industrial lifting applications including heavy machinery positioning, fixture handling, and overhead crane or hoist attachment points. The center pull design allows the load to be applied from any horizontal or vertical direction without side-loading the mounting thread. It is appropriate for use on steel weldments, machined blocks, press platens, and similar fabricated components in manufacturing, maintenance, and heavy industrial environments.

Key Features

• 8,000 lb rated load capacity for heavy-duty lifting applications
• Safety engineered center pull design accommodates multi-directional load angles
• 4140 alloy steel construction for high strength and durability
• Black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance in industrial environments
• 7/8-9 thread size with 160 ft/lb installation torque specification
• Swivel and pivot action reduces stress on the mounting point during rigging

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation hoist ring for use in industrial lifting fixtures and machinery with a 7/8-9 tapped mounting hole.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger, millwright, or maintenance technician familiar with ASME B30.26 rigging hardware standards. The mounting surface must be flat, clean, and capable of supporting the full rated load. Apply the specified 160 ft/lb torque using a calibrated torque wrench to ensure full thread engagement before any lift is attempted. Never use a hoist ring that has been shock-loaded, bent, or shows signs of thread damage.
