Today we are talking about the legal ramifications of building your own lifting devices and rigging equipment and why ASME has specific standards in place for the creation of a below-the-hook device.

We are joined by a few lifting experts from Caldwell Lifting Solutions, one of the leading manufacturers of below the hook lifting solutions, as well as Mazzella's Kevin Brewer, Below-the-Hook Sales Specialist, to discuss why the devices you are currently using, if not made to very specific ASME standards, may put you at legal risk and open to OSHA fines.

Jay Schroeder, Regional Sales Manager at The Caldwell Group, Inc.
Dan Mongan, Senior Sales Engineer at The Caldwell Group, Inc.
