LiftGuard Sling Protectors Spotted on Cover of International Cranes
DICA’s LiftGuard Magnetic Sling Protectors were used as part of a lift featured on December’s cover of International Cranes & Specialized Transport. IC recognized McLaren Engineering Group and Orange County Ironworks for successfully lifting a Liebherr LTM 1130 wheeled mobile crane to the rooftop of Tiffany & Co. in the narrow city streets of New York.
In the cover photo, you can see LiftGuard Magnetic Sling Protectors positioned between the sling and the upper and lower contact points with the outrigger box to prevent sling contact with the steel edges abrasion. Edge protection is critical to avoiding sling failure and is a requirement per (OSHA 29 CFR 1910.184(c)(9) and ASME B30.9).
Congratulations to McLaren Engineering Group and Orange County Ironworks on a successful lift!
