Codipro Lifting Points
The Codipro lifting point line, including the DSR swivel ring, SSTN, and PLBW configurations, is what happens when a manufacturer focuses on one problem: attaching a rigging point to a load in a way that lets the load be lifted from any angle without compromising the connection. Codipro lifting points thread into the load and sit close to the surface. The swivel ring rotates 360° and pivots under load. The connection point adapts to the rigging, not the other way around.
About Codipro Lifting Points
Wind energy installers, aerospace integrators, and heavy machinery shops across Europe have specified Codipro lifting points for years. Holloway Houston brings that product line to North America. We stock in Houston and ship nationwide — call 1-888-496-4700 for current models and availability.
Codipro SA is a Belgian manufacturer specializing in swivel lifting hardware. Their lifting point line, designated DSR, SSTN, and PLBW, covers the range from standard swivel ring configurations to flush-mount and compact designs for applications where the lifting point needs to sit as low as possible on the load surface.
What distinguishes a Codipro lifting point from a conventional eye bolt is the swivel mechanism. The ring or bale assembly rotates 360° and pivots under load, maintaining rated WLL across the working angle range. This matters in multi-point lifts where sling angles are set by load geometry rather than operator choice, and in confined spaces where the rigging path is dictated by what is around the load rather than what is ideal.
Codipro lifting points are forged alloy steel, proof-tested at manufacture, and certified to EN 1677-1. DGUV certification provides independent technical verification. Every unit ships with a proof test certificate and is marked with WLL and manufacturer identification per ASME B30.26 and EN 1677-1 requirements.
Holloway Houston is the authorized North American distributor for Codipro, stocking lifting points in Houston.
Types of Codipro Lifting Points
DSR Swivel Ring Lifting Point
The DSR is Codipro's core swivel ring lifting point, a forged alloy body with a free-running ring that rotates 360° and pivots under load. It threads into a tapped hole in the load and sits low on the surface, keeping the rigging connection close to the load. The DSR is the dominant Codipro configuration for machinery, fabricated steel, and wind energy applications.
SSTN Swivel Lifting Point
The SSTN configuration is designed for applications where a lower overall height is needed above the mounting surface. The swivel function, 360° rotation, full pivot range, is the same as the DSR, but the body profile keeps the lifting point closer to the load surface. Specified for applications with limited clearance above the mount point or where a compact footprint is part of the design requirement.
PLBW Swivel Lifting Point
The PLBW lifting point addresses applications where the swivel ring needs to fold flat against the load surface when not in use, common in transport, storage, and applications where a protruding ring creates an interference or snagging risk when the load is not being lifted. The ring folds down and locks flat; it deploys for lifting and the swivel function operates at full rated capacity.

Why Codipro for Lifting Points
Codipro's lifting point line is the product of a focused manufacturer. The DSR, SSTN, and PLBW are not generic lifting hardware, they are designed for applications where the attachment point and rigging angle relationship is the critical design variable. The swivel geometry, forging tolerances, and proof-test protocols reflect that focus.
For North American buyers integrating European equipment, the EN 1677-1 and DGUV credentials mean the lifting point documentation aligns with European project specifications without requiring separate documentation or derating. Wind energy, offshore, and aerospace sectors that import European-designed equipment frequently specify European lifting hardware standards.
For domestic applications, machinery shops, fabrication, heavy industrial, the swivel lifting point is specified wherever a fixed eye bolt creates a load path problem that a rotating connection solves.
Holloway Houston also offers rigging inspection services. Our qualified inspectors examine lifting points, hoist rings, and rigging hardware per ASME B30.26 and OSHA standards to keep your equipment in service.

Lifting Point Safety and Awareness
Swivel lifting points in overhead lifting service fall under ASME B30.26 (Rigging Hardware), which covers design factors, marking requirements, and inspection intervals. OSHA 1910.184 applies to rigging hardware in general industry; OSHA 1926.251 addresses jobsite rigging hardware.
- Thread engagement depth must meet manufacturer specifications.
- Inspect for deformation, cracking, corrosion, and marking legibility.
- Use within rated pivot range only.
- Confirm PLBW fold-flat units are deployed before lifting.
- Retain proof test certificates for service life.
Frequently Asked Questions
A standard eye bolt has a fixed eye, off-axis loading degrades its rated capacity and can deform the eye. A Codipro swivel lifting point has a ring or bale that rotates 360° and pivots under load, maintaining rated WLL across the working angle range. This makes lifting points the choice where sling angles are set by load geometry rather than operator preference.
These are Codipro's swivel lifting point product lines. The DSR is the standard swivel ring configuration, the primary choice for machinery, fabricated steel, and wind energy. The SSTN is a low-profile version for limited-clearance applications. The PLBW is a fold-flat design where the ring folds down when not in use, for applications where a protruding ring creates a transport or snagging problem.
Codipro swivel lifting points are manufactured to EN 1677-1, the European standard for forged load-handling components, and carry DGUV certification. In North America, ASME B30.26 (Rigging Hardware) governs design, marking, and inspection for lifting points and rigging hardware used in overhead lifting service.
Codipro lifting points are available in both metric and UNC thread configurations. Metric covers European equipment and offshore applications. UNC covers North American imperial fastener patterns. Holloway Houston can confirm which configurations are in stock and available for a given WLL requirement, call 1-888-496-4700.
Every Codipro lifting point order from Holloway Houston includes a proof test certificate from the manufacturer. Hardware is marked with WLL and manufacturer identification per EN 1677-1 and ASME B30.26. Documentation packages for project traceability requirements are available on request.
ASME B30.26 specifies frequent inspection of rigging hardware before or during each use, covering visible damage, ring and body deformation, and marking legibility. Periodic inspection at intervals based on service severity is also required. A lifting point that has been shock-loaded or shows deformation should be removed and inspected by a qualified person before being returned to service.
