Barrel lifting sockets are widely used in the application of Precast concrete construction, such as lifting beams wall and floor slabs. A reinforcement tail must be fitted to transfer the load into the concrete.

Precast Construction Technology Ltd (PCT) lifting sockets are produced and tested in manufacturing plants that are certified to ISO 9001. On arrival at PCT we take samples from each batch which are forwarded to an independent UKAS registered test house for additional proof and destruction testing. All sockets are marked with a batch number to identify the year and month of production. 

Test certificates are supplied as standard with the delivery. Please call PCT for further information if required.
