Delta Rigging & Tools Now Offers RFID Technology

Delta Rigging and Tools has added RFID tagging technology to our long list of value added products and services that we can provide to our customers. 

ASME B30.9 requires many slings and rigging products to be  inspected, as a minimum, on an annual basis. It also requires the user to have a written inspection report on file for the most recent inspection. When using traditional inspection methods, the complete process (from inspection to the final printed report) can be very labor intensive and time consuming. 

Working with industry leading software and RFID tag developer InfoChip, Delta Rigging & Tools can now provide RFID tagging systems offering the user key advantages when it comes to sling inspections and documentation.

Advantages to using InfoChip:

• Real time asset management and safety compliance database accessible on several devices
• The system provides a more streamlined approach to asset inspection which reduces overall total inspection time
• Reduction in the manpower required when performing the inspection
• Inspection reports easily created with a higher level of accuracy
• Allows for electronic transfer and storage of asset data, certificates and documents
• Ability to customize inspection criteria and reports 

As a customer of Delta Rigging & Tools, you now have the option to order products equipped with the RFID capability. Once enrolled in the InfoChip program through Delta Rigging & Tools, you will be given a website login to access all of your asset information on several devices. The online management capabilities will help you accurately manage your product inventory by creating a digital registry of all you assets including; status, location, next certification date, stock reorders, operation history and all asset related documentation.

Are you purchasing the highest quality of High performance round slings on the market?

Delta Rigging & Tools stands by the superior quality of Tuffy HP round slings manufactured by our preferred synthetic sling supplier, Tuffy Products.

TuffyHP round slings combine superior flexibility with custom high strength fibers that give you a lighter, stronger, more compact lifting sling to accommodate a wide variety of difficult loads. The flexibility and compact size of the TuffyHP promotes rigging speed and allows for easy storage and transportation.

TuffyHP round slings are manufactured using superior materials that include engineered custom high strength fibers, encased in an abrasive resistant jacket, which allows these high performance round slings to take on a whole new level of lifting capabilities. TuffyHP round slings exhibit super high strength when compared to other sling materials of the same weight. TuffyHP slings are 8 times as strong as steel and 3 times as strong as polyester or nylon. Lower overall sling weights result in faster rigging times, increased rigger safety during transport and the rigging process, as well as a higher load capacity per lift since less weight is required for the sling itself.

The TuffyHP round sling maintains a stretch factor of less than 1% at its rated capacity. This enables precise load control that minimizes adjustments for stretch and reduces headroom problems of your lift. The high performance custom high strength fibers used in TuffyHP round slings exhibit high resistance to both acids and alkalis as well as organic solvents. They are also stable against seawater and steam and show good hydrolytic resistance. When compared to other high strength slings the TuffyHP round sling has a longer service life.

In addition to the already tough exterior, TuffyHP round slings all receive two heavy duty adjustable wear pads to protect lifting eyes and to increase abrasion resistance. For maximum visibility and safety, each sling is stenciled with the model number which easily identifies the vertical lifting capacity and is tagged with full capacities and usage information. For environments that require heat resistance up to 350°, we offer a full line of high heat resistant high performance round slings with the same capacities as our TuffyHP round slings.
