The FIBC-3-LM is an all-steel lifting frame for Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBC bulk bags). The bag loops hang from four 3.0 t excavator hooks welded at the corners of the frame, so the bag is lifted from all four loops.
The frame lifts from a single centrally positioned pad eye or from four corner pad eyes, and forklift pockets let it be moved and positioned on deck by forklift.
- Four 3.0 t weld-on excavator hooks for the FIBC loops
- Center pad eye and four corner pad eyes for single-sling or four-leg rigging
- Forklift pockets for handling on deck
- Orange painted finish, with WLL and MGW marked on the frame
Design and testing
Designed by Billy Pugh Company to DNV-ST-E273 (portable offshore units), DNV-ST-0378 and AISC 360-16, with structural calculations by Genesis Engineering. The frame is not DNV certified.
Proof load tested and thoroughly examined by Astron Certification at 4,272 kg, twice the maximum gross weight, with the record issued in ADNOC format. Each unit ships with a Billy Pugh Company Certificate of Conformance.
