Construction companies need rigging gear that can handle jobsite work without slowing the crew down. Heavy materials, equipment, steel, forms, attachments, and awkward loads all need the right lifting setup before the work starts.
Advantage Rigging supplies chain slings, shackles, lifting hooks, latch kits, hoists, come alongs, chain falls, nylon slings, polyester round slings, and rigging hardware for construction companies, general contractors, steel crews, equipment crews, maintenance teams, and industrial jobsite crews.
Whether you are stocking a job trailer, replacing worn rigging, or ordering the gear your crew keeps asking for, this page helps you get to the right supplies faster.
Need rigging gear for your construction crew?
Rigging Gear Construction Crews Actually Use
On a construction site, missing gear turns into wasted time fast. If the crew needs a sling, shackle, hook, latch kit, or come along, they usually need it before the lift, not after everyone is standing around looking at the load.
If you are buying for a construction company, you need gear that is easy to order, easy to identify, and useful across multiple jobs. Advantage Rigging helps owners, foremen, purchasing teams, and field crews stock the lifting and rigging supplies they reach for most.

Shop Nylon SlingsChain Slings for Construction Jobsites
Chain slings are a strong fit for construction crews that lift heavy, rugged, or rough-use loads. They are commonly used for steel, equipment, attachments, forms, frames, machinery parts, and jobsite materials.
Construction companies often use chain slings for:
- Lifting steel and structural components
- Moving heavy materials around the jobsite
- Handling equipment attachments
- Loading and unloading materials
- Supporting crane picks and equipment lifts
- Moving forms, frames, and fabricated assemblies
- Rugged field and shop work
Before ordering, check the working load limit, chain grade, sling length, number of legs, hook style, lift points, load weight, and how the sling will be used. If your crew keeps asking for the same sling, it probably belongs in the job trailer.
Shackles for Construction Rigging Connections
Shackles are one of those parts construction crews always seem to need. They are used to connect slings, hooks, lifting eyes, and other rigging hardware during jobsite lifting, loading, unloading, and equipment handling.
- Connect slings to lifting points
- Build cleaner lifting setups
- Replace worn or missing connection hardware
- Support jobsite lifting and equipment handling
- Keep common rigging parts ready for the crew
Check shackle size, type, pin style, markings, fit, and working load limit before buying or using. The wrong connection hardware can turn a normal lift into a whole crew discussion nobody wanted.
Lifting Hooks and Replacement Hooks
Hooks take a lot of wear on construction jobsites. If your crew uses chain slings often, keeping the right hooks and replacement parts available can help reduce downtime and keep jobs moving.
Construction companies may need hooks for:
- Chain sling assemblies
- Replacement rigging hardware
- Jobsite lifting setups
- Load attachment points
- Equipment, steel, and material handling work
If a hook is bent, cracked, stretched, damaged, heavily worn, or no longer closes correctly, remove it from service and replace it with the right part.
Latch Kits for Chain Sling Hooks
Latch kits are small, but they matter. A missing or damaged latch can take a hook out of service even when the hook itself is still usable.
Buying latch kits makes sense when your crew wants to:
- Replace worn or damaged hook latches
- Keep common chain sling hooks usable
- Reduce downtime from small missing parts
- Stock repair parts for shop, truck, or field crews
- Avoid replacing a full hook when only the latch kit is needed
Before ordering, match the latch kit to the hook type, size, and manufacturer requirements. If the hook itself is damaged, replace the hook instead.
Hoists, Come Alongs, and Chain Falls for Jobsite Support
Construction work is not always a simple lift. Crews may need to pull, position, hold, raise, lower, or line up equipment and materials before the work can keep moving.
Advantage Rigging carries lever hoists, also called come alongs, and manual chain hoists, often called chain falls.
Lever Hoists / Come Alongs
Lever hoists are useful for pulling, positioning, tensioning, and controlled movement in tight or awkward areas.
- Pulling materials into position
- Aligning components
- Supporting field service work
- Holding parts during setup
- Controlled movement in tight jobsite areas
Available capacities: 3/4, 1, 1.5, 3, 6, 9, and 12 tons.
Available lift lengths: 5, 10, 15, or 20 feet.
Chain Hoists / Chain Falls
Chain hoists are commonly used for vertical lifting in shops, yards, service areas, maintenance settings, and jobsites.
Available capacities: 1/2, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 5, 7.5, and 10 tons.
Available lift lengths: 10, 15, 20, or 30 feet.
Custom lift lengths are available on request. Call 480-502-2225 for details.
Nylon and Polyester Slings for Finished or Sensitive Loads
Chain slings are a strong fit for many construction lifts, but not every load should be lifted with chain. Nylon and polyester slings can be useful when the load is finished, painted, coated, or needs a softer lifting surface.
- Handle painted or finished components
- Lift parts that need a softer contact point
- Move irregular shapes
- Reduce surface damage when needed
- Support general jobsite and material handling work
Always confirm the working load limit, sling condition, lift angle, edge protection, and load shape before using any synthetic sling.
What to Check Before You Buy
If you are ordering rigging supplies for a construction company, start with the lifts your crew handles most often.
- What materials or equipment are being lifted most often?
- How heavy are the loads?
- Are the loads sharp, rough, painted, finished, coated, or awkward?
- Do you need chain slings, synthetic slings, or both?
- What connection points are available?
- What sling lengths and leg counts does the crew need?
- Do hooks, latches, or shackles need replacement?
- Do you need hoists or come alongs for setup and support work?
- Does the gear match your safety requirements and jobsite procedures?
Not sure what to order? Call 480-502-2225. Advantage Rigging can help you narrow down the options.
Common Construction Uses
Construction companies often buy rigging gear for:
- Lifting steel, equipment, and jobsite materials
- Moving forms, frames, attachments, and fabricated assemblies
- Loading and unloading trucks
- Supporting crane picks and equipment lifts
- Positioning materials during installation
- Replacing worn hooks, latches, shackles, or connectors
- Keeping job trailers, shops, and field crews ready
A heavy material lift may call for a chain sling. A finished component may need a synthetic sling. A connection point may need the right shackle. A worn latch may need a proper replacement kit.
The jobsite has enough delays already. Missing rigging gear does not need to join the party.
Safety and Inspection Reminder
Rigging gear should be inspected before use and removed from service if there are signs of damage, heavy wear, deformation, missing identification, broken latches, damaged hooks, cracks, cuts, severe corrosion, or other concerns.
Before lifting, always confirm:
- Working load limit
- Sling angle
- Gear condition
- Proper connection points
- Load stability
- Sharp edge protection when needed
- Applicable safety requirements
- Manufacturer instructions
- Jobsite safety rules
This page is meant to help buyers understand common product types and use cases. It is not a substitute for trained rigging judgment, qualified inspection, or required safety procedures.
When in doubt, stop and verify before lifting.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rigging supplies should a construction company keep on hand?
Many construction companies keep chain slings, shackles, lifting hooks, latch kits, hoists, come alongs, chain falls, nylon slings, polyester round slings, and common rigging hardware on hand. The right mix depends on the materials, equipment, and loads your crew lifts most often.
Are chain slings useful on construction jobsites?
Yes. Chain slings are commonly used on construction jobsites because they are durable and useful for heavy materials, steel, equipment, attachments, forms, and rugged lifting work. Always confirm the working load limit, chain grade, sling angle, hook style, and sling condition before use.
When should a construction crew use nylon or polyester slings?
Nylon and polyester slings may be a better fit when lifting painted, finished, coated, or sensitive components that need more surface protection. The right sling depends on the load weight, shape, edges, surface, and lifting angle.
Are hoists and come alongs useful for construction companies?
Yes. Hoists, chain falls, and come alongs can be useful for pulling, positioning, holding, and aligning materials or equipment during setup, support work, repairs, and installation.
When should a latch kit be replaced?
A latch kit should be replaced when the latch is missing, damaged, bent, worn, sticking, or not closing as intended. Always confirm the replacement latch kit matches the hook type, size, and manufacturer requirements.
