Install a permanent loop at rope ends using a compression tool

S-Hooks

Connect lengths of rope and chain; hang objects like hose, cords, and light fixtures

Shackles

Lift, pull, and anchor heavy loads while keeping them secure with a pin

Carabiners

Hook onto rope and webbing to quickly connect objects, fittings, and other lengths of rope

Quick Links

Screw the nut closed to join lengths of chain and add connectors

Hooks

Lift, hang, and bind loads with rope and chain

Hook Latches

Replace the latch on hooks

Chain Rings

Join chains and add connectors for binding, towing, and lifting

Chain Connecting Links

Chain Connecting Links

Attach fittings to lift components or bind, tie down, and pull items

Hoist Rings

Pivot to resist stress that would bend or break an eyebolt when lifting at an angle

Snap Hooks

Spring, slide, or press open to quickly connect rope and chain

Swivels

Rotate loads to keep rope and chain from twisting and knotting

Cable Pulling Clamps

Cable Pulling Clamps

Maintain tension until a line can be permanently anchored

Ring Links

Bend, hammer, or twist closed to connect chain links and attach fittings

Marlin Spikes

Fray rope ends for splicing and to attach fittings

Turnbuckles

Twist the body or end fittings to adjust the length and tension of attached rope and chain

Roller Swage Presses

Roller Swage Presses

Install swage fittings at the ends of wire rope

Slings

Grip and lift loads with hoists and cranes; made of webbing, rope, or chain

Winches

Wind up and let out rope, chain, and webbing for lifting and towing

Pulleys

Mount or suspend to guide wire rope for lifting and pulling loads

Ratchet Pullers

Ratchet Pullers

Ratcheting action creates the pulling power of a winch in a versatile, portable tool

Hoists

Lift and position heavy loads using manual, electric, or air power

Robot Vacuum Lifters

Robot Vacuum Lifters

Use suction to grip, lift, and move objects with a robot arm

Raw Materials

Stainless Steel

Stainless Steel

Resists corrosion and chemicals in most environments

Steel

Strong, machinable, and weldable but lacks corrosion resistance

Aluminum

Lightweight, easy to machine, and corrosion resistant in wet environments

Tungsten

Our densest metal resists wear and heat to make end mills, heat shields, electrodes, and more

Titanium

The most corrosion-resistant metal we offer, with very high strength relative to its weight

Nickel

An upgrade from stainless steel that withstands harsh chemicals and acids at high temperatures

Gold

Softer than copper and nearly as conductive, form it into electronic components that won't corrode

Copper

The most conductive of our metals, it excels in all types of electrical applications

Brass

More machinable than copper and bronze for making nuts, hinges, and locks

Platinum

Conductive and formable, it resists extreme heat for use in parts such as thermocouple probes

Tantalum

Conductive with a higher melting point than most metals, it’s often used in heating elements

Molybdenum

Retains its shape and strength in extreme temperatures and conducts heat and electricity

Niobium

Conductive, corrosion resistant, and strong, even at extremely high and low temperatures

Bronze

With better wear resistance than copper and brass, it’s used for bearings, gears, and pump parts

Communication

Tags

Hang throughout facilities to convey information

Tag Rings

Loop onto tags to attach them to lanyards, key rings, and other objects

Building and Machinery Hardware

Pull Cords

Operate doors, vents, skylights, and overhead equipment
