Hey there,
Spring has finally sprung, construction season is getting into gear, and equipment is being mobilized. It’s an exciting time, and we’re proud to support the wide variety of ongoing projects.
As usual, our monthly newsletter is full of the latest lifting and rigging insights, success stories, and expert solutions.
Given the scope of industries we serve, we are committed to expanding our knowledge, resources, and offerings to provide the safest, most customized solution for any lift.
Certain pieces of equipment are the bread and butter of heavy lifting, such as spreader beams and slings, because they are ideal for many use cases. But some jobs require a different solution.
Because of this, we recently introduced the Vega Air Bags, manufactured by Sava. This addition brings increased capacity options, including the Vega 100 model, a 100-ton capacity bag.
The Vega lifting bags can be stacked by up to three bags to increase lifting height.
Air bag jacks are perfect for extremely tight clearances when a standard jack won’t work. And they can be stacked up to 3 bags high! See why the Vega air bags may be the right solution for your next lift.

Collector rings offer a well-rounded approach to complex lifts. LGH recently provided Thackray Crane Rental with a collector ring, slings, and shackles to complete a lift for the Aston Tank Farm in Pennsylvania.
Designed to streamline the lifting of large domes and circular tanks, with a 150-ton capacity and a 16-point crown, the collector ring is the perfect piece of equipment for a job like this. Learn more about collector rings or get a quote today.

If you’re moving heavy equipment through tight spaces or need to rotate a load with precision, rotating machine skates — also known as crazy skates — are one of the most versatile tools you can use.
In our latest YouTube video, “What are Crazy Skates? Rotating Machine Skates for Moving Heavy Equipment,” LGH’s Aaron Orsak walks through what makes these heavy duty dollies so effective for industrial rigging and equipment moves.
Whether it be railway maintenance, an old bridge requiring repair, or solar farm construction, many projects rely on federal funding. Currently, several projects face funding uncertainty, resulting in long delays or shutdowns, even after a project previously got the green light.
In this blog post, we discuss the hidden costs of funding freezes along with the advantages of working with LGH in times of uncertain federal funding.

“Had a last minute addition of two 10″ tall jacks which were needed to adjust a damper blade. Called the folks handling my order and they hopped to, put the two jacks on my order and shipped out about an hour later. Great service!”
