Van Beest Green Pin® ADA Rotating Hoist Ring (Metric)

The Green Pin ADA Rotating Hoist Ring (Metric) is a bolt-on lifting point with 360° rotation and 180° pivot, designed for permanent installation on machinery and equipment. The self-aligning design automatically adjusts to the sling load direction, eliminating side-loading on the bolt and maintaining full rated capacity regardless of lifting angle.

Key Features

• 360° rotation plus 180° pivot for complete directional freedom
• Metric thread options for European and international equipment
• Forged alloy steel, individually proof tested
• Self-aligning eliminates side-loading on the mounting bolt
• Fatigue rated for repeated lifting cycles
• Manufactured by Van Beest to European quality standards

Common Applications

• Permanent lifting points on molds, dies, and production tooling
• Machinery installation and maintenance lifting
• Equipment with metric-threaded mounting holes
• Any application requiring a fixed, reusable, self-aligning lifting point

Why Green Pin?

Green Pin hoist rings combine Van Beest's reputation for quality with self-aligning design that maximizes capacity at every lifting angle. No capacity reduction for angular loads — a significant advantage over fixed eye bolts.

• NACM — welded steel chain grade specs

Inspection & Safety

Before every use: visual check for cracks, corrosion, distortion, wear, and illegible markings. Annually (minimum): documented periodic inspection by a trained inspector. Remove from service at first sign of damage. Never repair rigging hardware by welding, heating, or bending.

WARNING: Improper use of rigging can cause death or serious injury. Never exceed the rated Working Load Limit. Apply derating for side-loading, elevated temperature, or chemical exposure. Final application decisions must be made by a Qualified Person per OSHA 1926.32(m).
