INDUSTRIAL & MANUFACTURING RIGGING SOLUTIONS
Specialized Industrial Rigging Solutions for Confined Spaces
Industrial and manufacturing facilities present unique challenges that demand specialized industrial rigging expertise. Buildings often are not designed for rigging solutions or cranes. Limited headroom means that standard lifting solutions often fall short. Failed rigging that results in a single dropped component in a stamping plant or damages a die that weighs tons can halt production lines and cost thousands per hour in lost productivity.
Our team understands the space constraints that define your environment and delivers rigging applications engineered for confined industrial settings—enabling you to maximize your facility's capabilities without the need for impossible structural modifications or inferior solutions that could damage tooling and equipment.

"I&I Sling is our source for our rigging needs." - John B.
Stamping and Die Change Operations
Precise handling of dies weighing anywhere from 5 to 40 tons in stamping plants where vertical clearance is severely limited and production schedules demand rapid changeovers.
Mobile Crane and Heavy Equipment Assembly
Component positioning for manufacturers that need to lift heavy, oversized manufactured equipment requires rigging solutions that prevent damage while working in tight manufacturing spaces.
Chemical Plants and Refineries
Critical rigging applications in process facilities where headroom constraints combine with stringent safety requirements and operational pressures.
Precast Concrete Manufacturing
Heavy load handling in aging facilities where 40- to 50-year-old infrastructure limits production capacity and raising the roof is impractical.
Engineering Industrial Rigging Solutions for How You Manufacture
Engineers designing manufactured parts often don't consider handling requirements. Pick up a component the wrong way, and you'll damage it. Factor in headroom constraints, and the complexity multiplies. From a mobile crane assembly to railcar manufacturing components, you're lifting what you produce.
Our Twin-Path® Extra High Performance slings deliver 50,000+ cycle life with repairable covers—ideal for repetitive operations where equipment longevity directly impacts productivity:
- Patented products unavailable elsewhere through in-house Slingmax product fabrication
- Rigorous testing and proven track record across diverse applications
- NCCCO-certified sales professionals and an engineering team with extensive experience
- Solutions that work within your constraints to maximize efficiency
Maximize Capacity Within Your Space Constraints
The defining challenge in industrial manufacturing is the lack of headroom. Whether you're handling dies in a stamping plant or maneuvering equipment in tight quarters, vertical space limitations dictate every aspect of your lift plan. Many facilities operate in decades-old buildings where infrastructure limits production capacity. While raising a roof isn't feasible, optimizing your rigging equipment is.
Our high-performance fiber slings weigh one-tenth of comparable steel slings, enabling solutions where traditional gear simply won't fit. This dramatic weight reduction means:
- Work within existing ceiling heights without structural modifications
- Reduce total load on overhead systems and crane capacity requirements
- Improve ergonomics for repetitive tasks throughout eight-hour shifts
- Increase productivity handling 75-pound to multi-ton assemblies safely
Expertise That Understands Your Environment
When you seek answers to tricky situations, you're not dealing with a call center. All our sales professionals are NCCCO certified, passing the same application-based tests that end users take to become certified for rigging work.
