Headquartered in Houston, BLP’s in-house engineering team has years of industry experience focused on
lifting and mechanical handling devices. We use modern design technologies like 3D modeling, Finite Element
Analysis, and Computer aided design on projects. Our fabrication team uses certified fabrication techniques
and state of the art testing equipment on every build. All Liftmax® Lifting Devices are inspected and graphed
proof test certificates are available on www.prooftesting.com.
Lifting Devices
BLP has been fabricating lifting devices for 20+ years. We were the first company in Texas dedicated to
satisfying the demands of heavy industry for custom and standard lifting applications. Liftmax® Lifting Devices
are built to meet or exceed ASME BTH-1 and ASME B30.20 “Below the Hook Lifting Devices” Standards.
Engineering
We are lifting equipment design specialists geared specifically for custom lifting devices. Our experienced
in-house engineering firm utilizes CAD, 3-D modeling, and FEA (Finite Element Analysis) programs. All BLP
lifting devices are designed and fabricated according to the ASME BTH-1 design standard, our years of field-
validated industry experience, modern electronic design and analysis tools.
Fabrication
All BLP welders and fitters comply with the AWS D1.1 and AWS 14.1 standards for welding and fabrication.
Welders retain multiple certifications on many types of welding processes such as MIG, TIG, and arc welding.
Our weld inspectors are ASNT Level II certified. We also perform periodic in-house weld tests to monitor
continuous improvement, and keep records on file for goal tracking purposes.

Proof Testing
Prior to initial use, all BLP lifting devices are proof tested to 125% of
the rated capacity. Testing certificates will be available upon com-
pletion at www.prooftesting.com.
RFID Tracking
RFID Chips are included on all lifting devices made 2010 and
after. This feature enables the owner to monitor inspection
frequency, move inventory, value assets, and schedule preventative
maintenance events.

General Information & Warnings
All products fabricated by Bishop Lifting Products, Inc., are sold with the express understanding that the purchaser and user
are thoroughly familiar with the safe use, proper care, and application of the product.
Responsibility for the safe use, proper care, and application of the product rests with the user.
Failure of the product can occur due to misapplication, abuse, overloading, improper care, or lack of maintenance.
There are numerous government and industry standards that cover products made by Bishop Lifting Products, Inc. This
catalog makes no attempt to reference all of them. We do reference standards that are most current like ASME B30.20
“Below the Hook Lifting Devices” and the ASME BTH-1 Below the Hook design standard.
Ratings shown in Bishop Lifting Products, Inc. literature are only applicable to new or in “as new” condition products.
Rated capacities define the greatest force or load a product can carry under usual environmental conditions. Shock loading
and extraordinary conditions must be taken into account when selecting products.
The products in the Bishop Lifting Products, Inc. catalog are fabricated by combining rigging hardware, wire rope, synthetic
webbing, synthetic tubing, alloy chain, and metal mesh. Some products will have components supplied from several different
manufacturers. It is critical that you read and understand the literature from these manufactures, as well as governmental
standards and industry technical manuals.
The rated capacity, design factor, and efficiency rating of each Bishop Lifting Products, Inc. product may be affected by wear,
misuse, overloading, corrosion, deformation, intentional alteration, age, and other use conditions.
The recommended proof load on “Below the Hook” lifting devices in this catalog is 125% of the rated capacity, unless
otherwise shown. Proof testing is included on all fabricated lifting devices. Proof test certificates can be accessed on our
online service located at www.ProofTesting.com

IDEAS IN
MOTION
Below are excerpts from the ASME B30.20. You can purchase the full version of this standard at www.asme.org.
Follow the Guidelines set forth in ASME B30.20 “Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices”.
Lifting device identification and product safety labels shall be done by the manufacturer, and should be maintained by the
user so as to be legible during the life of the device.
Inspection
Below-the-Hook Lifting Devices inspection falls into 4 categories: Initial, Every Lift, Frequent, and Periodic.
• Initial Inspection– New and reinstalled lifting devices shall be inspected by a designated person to verify compliance
with the applicable provisions of this chapter
• Every Lift Inspection - A visual examination done by the operator before and during each lift.
• Frequent Inspection
o A visual inspection for damage shall be performed by the operator of other designated persons with records not
required.
Normal Service - Monthly
Heavy Service - Weekly to monthly
Severe Service - Daily to weekly
Special or infrequent service - as recommended my a qualified person
o Conditions such as those listed in the removal criteria section or any other condition that may result in a hazard shall
not be returned to service until approved by a qualified person
o Written records are not required for frequent inspections
• Periodic Inspections
o A complete inspection for damage to the lifter shall be periodically performed by a qualified person making records
of external conditions to provide basis for continuing evaluation.
Normal Service - Yearly
Heavy Service - Semiannually
Severe Service - Quarterly
Special or infrequent service - as recommended my a qualified person
o Written records of periodic inspections shall be maintained
Identification, Inspection,
and Removal Criteria
Removal Criteria
A Below-the-Hook Lifting Device shall be removed from service if the following conditions are present:
o Missing or illegible data plates
o Deformation, cracks or excessive wear
o Loose or missing guards, pins, nuts, covers, stops, fasteners
o Automatic hold and release mechanisms or misadjustments that interfere with operation
o Cracked or worn gears, sprockets, pivot points, linkages, pads, pins
o Excessive wear at hoist hooking points or load supporting surfaces

ASME B30.20 “Below the Hook Lifting Devices”
ASME BTH-1 Design Standard for ‘Below the Hook Lifting Devices”
ASME B30.9 “Slings” Standard
ASME B30.20 addresses Structural and Mechanical Lifting Devices, Vacuum Lifting Devices, Operated Close Proximity
Lifting Magnets, Remotely Operated Lifting Magnets, and Scrap and Material Handling Grapples. It offers comprehensive
solutions applying to the marking, construction, installation, inspection, testing, maintenance, and operation of equipment
used for attaching loads to a hoist.
ASME BTH-1 is the equipment design standard companion to ASME B30.20. Specifically, ASME BTH-1 provides minimum
structural and mechanical design and electrical component selection criteria for ASME B30.20 below-the-hook lifting devices.
This helpful and practical volume is intended as a supplement to ASME B30.20 and not as a replacement.
