More than 100 people die from ladder-related accidents every year, and thousands more suffer disabling injuries. Using a ladder isn’t inherently dangerous – when ladders are in working condition, set up correctly, and used by a person with proper training, they're a safe and essential part of any construction site or home toolbox. So why do so many ladder related injuries and fatalities continue to occur?
Across construction, industrial, gas, and oil industries, there’s one essential tool that every worker uses every day – their hands. Although the human hand is an incredible tool, it’s also a delicate one – the bones and tissues in the back of the hand are vulnerable to work related injuries ranging from bumps and bruises to breaks and crushes.
Ask just about anyone what a rigging hook looks like, and they'll probably describe a shiny red hook with a classic logo embossed in all caps. The image of a Crosby® hook is nearly synonymous with heavy lifting and rigging, and with good reason -- Crosby® has been one of the world’s leading manufacturers of rigging and lifting products since they were founded in 1836.
In December of 2008, Hanes Supply, Inc. held our Annual Kent Hull Hard Working Man Award Dinner, honoring Thurman Thomas. All who attended enjoyed their time to share some Holiday Cheer and a wonderful dinner.
The Niagara Falls attraction the Maid of the Mist was welcomed to its new home on Thursday, October 31st 2013. The two tour boats, weighing approximately 125 tons each, needed to be lifted onto the new concrete slab that was built on the American side of the Niagara River for storage during the winter months.
Hanes Supply, Inc and Engineered Lifting Technologies received a request from a customer to work with them on a complicated lift plan with an aggressive delivery schedule. The customer wanted to lift a 59 ft diameter rebar mat design weighing approximately 90,000 lb each in a single pick. The three rebar mats made of # 8 and # 14 rebar (hand tied) were designed to plug 3 different 60’diameter shafts with a 1500CY concrete tremie pour at the bottom of a 120 ft deep shaft filled with water.
Hanes Supply’s wire rope and 16 Crosby 2 inch G-450 wire rope clips, to secure the tight rope cable, were used for Nik Wallenda “King of the High Wire” at the Niagara Falls casino as he practiced for his “Wallenda Walk Over The Falls” on June 15th 2012.
Hanes Supply was contacted by a customer to assist in the assessment and supply of rigging equipment to move a turbo compressor unit weighing 356,000 pounds. Upon evaluation it was found that some obstacles existed. There were two large funnels coming out of the top of the unit and a row of bayonet fittings that would be in the way of traditional rigging. The unit was manufactured with lifting lugs in place but the funnels prevented using two overhead hooks to rig the load out from the center on each end.
Hanes Supply recently manufactured 52 each TPXC 10000 x 20' long High Performance Twin-Path Slings with Tell Tails and Fiber Optics. The Slings have a vertical Capacity of 100,000 pounds. The weight of each Sling is only 51 pounds each. Our team of Tim Frederick (not pictured), Ron Learn, Kevin Gruber, Gary Learn (not pictured), Dan Faulhaber and Greg Koch lead the production and testing.
Hanes Supply furnished the following Rigging and Lifting for Fabric Panels at the New Arizona Cardinals Stadium: Due to the capacity of the helicopter, Hanes Supply provided a 3,000 pound capacity by twenty foot Aluminum Beam. The weight of the Spreader Beam was 250 pounds. The Spreader Beam was fabricated in less than one week by Engineered Lifting Technologies, Inc. In addition, the Spreader Beam took its first flight in the air from Buffalo, New York to Phoenix, Arizona via airfreight. This was due to the tight construction jobsite schedule.
