Stainless Steel Rings

Start with the required shape and mating hardware. Confirm the wire diameter, internal dimensions, material grade, loading direction and published product information for the exact size.

Round rings allow connected components to move around the circumference. D-rings provide a straighter bearing section that can help position compatible webbing, straps or fittings. Select according to the geometry of the complete assembly.

Rectangle loops provide a long straight section for compatible webbing or straps and can help keep them flatter. Confirm the internal width, height and wire diameter against the mating component.

Triangle loops can gather or position connected straps and hardware toward one point. Suitability depends on the exact connection geometry, dimensions and intended loading direction.

Both grades provide corrosion resistance. Grade 316 generally offers improved resistance in marine and chloride environments, while 304 may be appropriate for less aggressive service. Verify the exact product material before ordering.

These families are welded ring or loop products. Inspect the weld location and confirm that the selected product's construction and published information are appropriate for the intended assembly.

Only use a ring for lifting when the exact product and complete assembly are expressly rated and approved for that lifting service. Stainless construction or visual appearance alone does not establish a lifting rating.

Confirm wire diameter, inside width, inside height, overall dimensions, strap or fitting width, required clearance and the dimensions of all mating components.

Inspect for corrosion, cracks, distortion, wear, damaged welds and excessive thinning. Remove damaged or questionable rings from service and follow the applicable inspection requirements.
