Start To Finish: Boom Pendant Cable

Ever wonder how a boom pendant cable is made? Well, join us in the process of making one from start to finish. When people think about rigging, rarely do they think of something as meticulous as separating each strand of a wire to securely attach an open spelter socket. But this process helps increase the surface area for the adhesive to attach to. And when making any kind of rigging, strength is key, so taking that step to make a stronger product is always a privilege.

Why pose with a fish 🐟 when you can stand beside rigging ⛓️?

Meet our two-star riggers, Nico and Vitalii, hard at work on a 1½" wire rope lifting bridle.This beast weighs over 100 pounds, and if that is impressive, just imagine what it’s lifting.

These bridles are built for heavy-duty operations seeing use in mining, construction, and energy industries. Workers across Canada, North America, and the world depend on this equipment. That’s why we are so proud of what we do, because when you need strength you can trust, you can depend on Canyon Rigging to deliver.

Time Lapse of a Hand Spliced Load Sling

Did anyone say time lapse? Today, Nico is showing off his skills while making these wire rope slings with a hand tucked burn off eye. A job like this is incredibly demanding, which is why we love showing you the process. Getting a glimpse of the time and effort that goes into equipment like this is so vital in understanding its value and strength. A machine can never match strength that is built through the hand of a worker, and we are so proud of the effort of our associates.

Watch us break test whip checks! Break testing is a key component of making sure your rigging is safe. This is our second attempt at breaking our whip checks. In the first attempt, the strength of our rigging bent our custom pipe fitting. This time we designed a more durable pipe stand-in to help us get accurate numbers. Let us know what you think!

Break Testing: Whip Checks

Watch us break test whip checks! Break testing is a key component of making sure your rigging is safe. By bringing a piece of rigging to its maximum limit, we can be confident it can handle the load it is designed for. I think synthetic rope is one of my favourite things to break test in our hydraulic test bed. Not matter what, you know you are going to get a cool looking effect!

Start To Finish: How A Synthetic Tow Rope Is Made

Ever wonder how a tow rope is made? Today, Jane is showing off her skill and building a farmers best friend (at least when they have a tractor that is stuck in the mud). These tow ropes are incredible for pulling heavy equipment used in farming and agriculture, because even if you want to work hard doesn’t mean the mud, rain, or tractor care. Their strength guarantees a reliable option for keeping any business going, and seeing them being made is some of the coolest things we could imagine!

Check Out Us Splicing An Eye For 1-1/4" Wire Rope Lifting Sling

I cannot overstate how much strength bending these wires takes, but it isn’t just strength, it is technique. When you are splicing with a wire that is this big, you have to know exactly how and where to place that wire. It you don’t you will have an 1-1/4” wire rope whipping back at you, or even worse, a lifting eye that can’t handle loads. That is why we have experts like Vitalli, who can knock out on of these in no time, and makes a sling strong enough to handle the toughest jobs.

Thank you Vitallii for letting us join you!

Need a 1 1/2” wire rope sling? Well, that is no issue for our staff!

Wire rope this big requires a perfect balance of strength and technique. To get the splice right, you need to maneuver the wire seamlessly until it can be locked into place. One wrong move means getting 1 1/2’ wire whipping back at you. That is why Canyon Rigging prides itself in hiring and training some of the most talented rigging associates in the industry. So, when it comes to your heavy lifts, trust in our experts to build equipment strong enough to tackle the task.
