Rigging Tags

Benefits

Rigging tags offer critical advantages in industrial environments where safety, traceability, and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable. These durable identification solutions ensure equipment is marked with essential data, such as load limits, inspection dates, and certification information, minimizing operational risk.

A properly labeled rigging tag helps improve communication on job sites, reduce human error, and streamline safety checks. Whether in construction, energy, or heavy manufacturing, lifting and rigging tags offer peace of mind by supporting consistent safety procedures. Additionally, the ability to customize rigging tags with serialized numbers, barcodes, or QR codes allows businesses to integrate asset tracking systems for better maintenance management and documentation.

The Metal Marker Advantage

Safety is on the line when it comes to lifting and rigging inspection tags. Because clear, legible and reliable labels play a crucial role in workplace safety, working with an experienced company specializing in high-quality identification tags is essential. Metal Marker has been in the business for nearly 100 years, and those decades of experience have taught us the ins and outs of multiple industries. We bring our expertise and passion to the table to deliver the best-quality results for our customers.

Durable Tags With UV Resistance

Metal Marker’s rigging tags are known for their durability and UV resistance, which makes them ideal for lifting equipment in the rigging industry. These tags are designed to withstand harsh environments and extreme temperatures, ensuring the serial number remains legible and intact even after years of use. In addition, UV-resistant coatings protect the tags from fading and discoloration caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight.

This durability and UV resistance are crucial for equipment and machinery subjected to rough handling, harsh weather conditions and long hours of use. In addition, our rigging tags provide a reliable, long-lasting solution to label and identify heavy industrial equipment, ensuring workers can quickly and safely operate the equipment without the risk of accidents or breakdowns.

Made for Harsh Environments

Metal Marker’s rigging tags are designed to withstand harsh environments typical in industries like oil and gas. These tags are made from durable materials like stainless steel, brass and aluminum, which can withstand extreme temperatures, corrosion and chemicals. In addition, we offer a range of printing and marking options, such as laser etching and embossing, which provide permanent and legible labels that won’t wear off, even with rough handling or exposure to harsh chemicals. This makes them ideal for use in the oil and gas industry, where equipment and machinery are subjected to harsh conditions like extreme heat, moisture and chemicals.

Customizable and Time-Tested Solutions

Metal Marker rigging tags are fully customizable so you can create the correct identification tag for your business. Thanks to their durability and high-quality construction, our labels are known as reliable, time-tested solutions.

Industry-Compliant Rigging Inspection Tags

Many lifting and rigging industry regulators require equipment to be tagged periodically with labels showing the most recent maintenance information. For example, OSHA has mandated that every sling must have a sling tag affixed to it. These tags indicate specific usage techniques that should be used and weight tolerances for a given sling. That way, the end user will always know a safe working load for a sling.

Fast Turnaround and Exceptional Value

We know the importance of fast turnaround to our customers. That’s why we maintain a sizable on-hand inventory so that, once we receive an order, we can minimize the time it takes to deliver the product to you. This helps us maintain short lead times and ensures we always have it by the promised delivery date.

At the core of our business, our philosophy is to provide exceptional value through high-quality standards. We have a deep commitment to fast turnaround times and constantly try to be a low-cost leader of standard and custom tags, labels, decals and nameplates. We produce large and small orders, so you’ll always receive a high-quality metal tag designed for your needs, delivered on time and at a competitive price.

Applications

Rigging tags are essential in many industries that require strict adherence to safety standards and precise load handling. In the construction sector, these tags are used on slings, shackles, and lifting chains to indicate their usage status and inspection history.

In the oil and gas industry, rigging inspection tags help crews verify whether lifting equipment has passed required safety checks. Manufacturing facilities rely on these tags to label hoists and cranes.

At the same time, marine and offshore operations use them to monitor equipment exposed to harsh environmental conditions. Any workplace where load-bearing gear is involved can benefit from the clear visibility and information that rigging tags provide.

Materials

Metal Marker Manufacturing offers rigging tags in high-performance materials designed to withstand harsh conditions. Common materials include stainless steel and aluminum, which are known for their corrosion resistance and long-term durability in outdoor or industrial environments.

Stainless steel is ideal for offshore and chemical exposure, while aluminum provides a lightweight yet resilient option for general-purpose use. Custom materials and finishes can also be used for projects needing extra abrasion resistance or compliance with specific standards. Each tag is designed with your application in mind, ensuring reliability, legibility, and safety over time.
