Stainless Steel Tie-Down Rings

Begin with the installation method, mounting surface, required connection opening, loading direction and the published capacity needed for the complete restraint system. Confirm the exact product dimensions before ordering.

Bolt-on rings attach through a mounting plate and compatible fasteners. Weld-on rings require an appropriate weldable mounting surface and a qualified welding procedure. The finished installation is only as strong as its mounting structure and workmanship.

A forged web D-ring is a fixed attachment point commonly used with compatible webbing or strap assemblies. Confirm the internal opening, bar dimensions, strap width and published product information.

A folding ring can lie closer to the mounting surface when it is not in use. This can reduce interference, but adequate clearance must remain for the ring, connected hook or strap and its intended movement.

Do not use a tie-down or lashing ring for overhead lifting unless the exact product and complete installation are expressly rated and approved for that service. Cargo restraint capacity does not automatically establish a lifting rating.

No. Stainless steel provides corrosion resistance, but material alone does not establish capacity. Ring geometry, manufacturing, fasteners, welds, mounting structure and loading direction all affect the completed installation.

Confirm the mounting-plate dimensions, hole spacing, fastener size and grade, backing support, mounting-surface strength, installation torque and access behind the mounting surface.

Confirm that the base material is suitable for welding and that the specified welding process, filler material, joint preparation and corrosion treatment are appropriate. Use qualified personnel for critical installations.

Inspect the ring, hinge, plate, welds, fasteners and supporting structure for corrosion, cracks, distortion, looseness, wear or restricted movement. Remove damaged or questionable components from service.
