An LGH collector ring below-the-hook lifting device, lifting a heavy circular tank.
One of the most specialized tools in the LGH rental fleet is the Collector Ring, a purpose-built circular load lifting device designed for large round structures. Silos, tanks, domes, vessels, and other circular loads often require multiple lift points, balanced load distribution, and controlled placement from start to finish.
Traditional rigging methods can become complex when the load is wide, heavy, or awkwardly shaped. Sling angles, headroom, load balance, and uneven force distribution can all create challenges. The LGH Collector Ring helps solve those problems by distributing the load through 16 points around the structure.
With a 150-ton capacity, 2,500-pound weight, and project-specific slings and shackles included with each rental, the Collector Ring gives crews a compact, controlled solution for lifting heavy circular loads.
Our 16-point collector hoist ring is designed for heavy-duty, industrial round load lifts.
The LGH Collector Ring is a 16-point lifting device designed to lift large round or circular loads. It was custom-built for LGH to help solve a recurring lifting challenge: how to raise and place large circular structures safely, evenly, and with reduced rigging headroom.
Unlike a basic sling arrangement or single lifting point, the Collector Ring allows crews to connect multiple rigging points around the load. This helps distribute lifting forces more evenly and keeps the load plumb and level during lifting and placement.
The Collector Ring is especially useful when the load geometry makes traditional rigging difficult or when the project requires a more balanced multipoint lifting solution.
The Collector Ring helps lift round objects by distributing lifting forces through 16 points around the load. Instead of concentrating the lift through only a few connections, the multipoint design helps equalize the load before lifting begins.
This approach can help crews:
For silos, tanks, domes, and vessels, balanced support is critical. The Collector Ring gives crews a more controlled way to lift circular structures that may otherwise be difficult to rig evenly.

A 16-point lifting device provides multiple connection points around the load, helping distribute weight more evenly across the structure. This can be especially valuable when the load is large in diameter, sensitive to uneven loading, or difficult to balance from only a few pick points.
The 16-point design is useful when the load is:
By using multiple rigging points, crews can create a more stable lifting arrangement for large circular loads that require precise placement.
The LGH Collector Ring is designed for specialized heavy-duty lifts involving round structures.
Common applications include:
These projects often require more than standard rigging. Load shape, pick point spacing, headroom, center of gravity, and final placement all need to be considered before the lift begins.
The Collector Ring gives crews a specialized rental option when traditional rigging methods create too much complexity, require too much headroom, or do not provide enough load control.
Key benefits include:
LGH’s 150-ton Collector Ring gives crews access to a specialized circular load lifting device for large round structures. Each rental includes custom-configured slings and shackles tailored to the project, helping simplify setup and support a balanced lift from the start.
Our rental specialists can help review your load, lifting points, headroom, site conditions, and project requirements to determine whether the Collector Ring is the right solution.
Whether your project involves lifting a silo, water tank, dome, vessel, or another large round object, LGH can help provide the equipment and expertise needed to support the lift.
Lifting large circular loads requires more than capacity. Crews also need balance, control, headroom efficiency, and the right number of lift points. The LGH Collector Ring provides a specialized circular load lifting device for silos, tanks, domes, vessels, and other round structures that require controlled multipoint lifting.
By distributing load forces across 16 points and providing project-specific slings and shackles, the Collector Ring helps reduce rigging complexity and support safer, more efficient circular lifting applications.
