HOISTS & TOOLS
Our rigging products are second to none and have been a staple in the mid-west lifting industry for more than 70 years. Learn more below.
How we make them
Tway Lifting Products offers a wide assortment of specialized hoisting and handling tools and accessories. We carry cable winch hoists from Lincoln hoist and chain levertools from Tractel and Columbus McKinnon. These well made lifters are commonly used by mechanical contractors to lift pipe, place equipment or drag machines into position. Many of our customers rely on these tools to square structures, plumb columns and raise loads up to 3 tons. In addition to hoists we also inventory wire rope grips used to tension cables, Chinese finger grips for the underground utility boring business.
Iron Workers use our drift pins, bull pins and lining bars for structural steel erection and fabrication. Many of our steel processors and fabricators also use plate lifting clamps from Crosby IP Clamp and J.C. Renfroe for safe handling of treadplate and sheets of flat steel. Sledge hammers from Seymour Mfg are in stock in sizes 3lb. thru 20lb. Common uses are driving shafts and pins in construction equipment and general demolition. In addition to hammers, we also carry pinch point crow bars used in the installation of concrete pipe and for machinery moving operations.
