In WA’s construction sector, having the right lifting equipment on-site makes all the difference for both productivity and safety. At Rigging Rentals, we’ve seen thousands of projects pass through, and some pieces of equipment are used repeatedly because they deliver.
1. Air Hoists
Air hoists are ideal when working in confined spaces or where spark-free lifting is required. Rigging Rentals stocks the JDN air hoist range from 500 kg to 30 tonne, with chain lengths varying to suit your needs. These hoists are robust, fast, and flexible, making them perfect for steel erection, plant repositioning, or maintenance lifts. Our team can help you select the right capacity and chain length for your project.
2. Chain Hoists & Lever Hoists
Used for smaller lifts, fine control, or where overhead electrical supply is limited, chain and lever hoists are compact, cost-efficient, and dependable. They are frequently used on Perth construction sites for pre-cast panels, scaffold frames, adjustable lifts and equipment set-ups.
3. Slings (Round, Wire-Rope, Webbing/Round)
Slings connect loads safely to cranes or hoists. Rigging Rentals offers flat webbing slings, round slings and wire-rope slings. These are essential for lifting pre-cast concrete, structural steel, and mechanical components. To ensure the safe movement of your loads, all our slings are inspected, certified to Australian Standards and manufacturer recommendations, and ready to use.
4. Spreader Beams & Lifting Beams
Spreader beams and lifting beams distribute forces for structural integrity, especially for wide or awkward loads. Rigging Rentals provides lifting beams up to 120 tonne and modular spreader beams up to 1,000 tonnes. Spreader Beams & Lifting Beams are most often required for the placement of pre-cast panels, the erection of bridge components, the execution of complex multi-point lifts, and other similar jobs where heavy and sometimes uneven loads need to be moved

5. Girder Clamps & Trolleys
Girder clamps and trolleys allow you to lift or move items along existing steel beams. They are commonly used on mid-rise and industrial projects, converting structures into temporary load paths without full scaffolding or crane repositioning.
6. Shackles, Load Rings & Rigging Hardware
From small links to major connection points, high-quality rigging hardware ensures safety and reliability. Rigging Rentals offers certified shackles, and can source load rings and other rigging hardware for you to use on-site.
7. Load Cells & Weight Monitoring Equipment
Load cells and monitoring systems ensure lifts meet engineering specifications. Rigging Rentals provides tension and compression load cells to verify lift weights and improve site safety. They are critical for larger builds and mine-site interfacing projects.
8. Tirfor winches
Tirfor winches, also known as a tugger or wire puller, are tools essential for pulling, tensioning, or lifting in locations where cranes are not practical. They provide a reliable solution for moving heavy loads in confined spaces or areas with limited access. On construction sites, these systems are commonly used for the precise positioning of precast concrete elements, for pulling cables over long distances, and for various temporary works that require controlled lifting or tensioning. Rigging Rentals’ experienced team can assess your site requirements and recommend the most suitable tirfor winch to ensure safe and efficient operations.
9. Load Skates, Toe-Jacks & Machinery Movers
For moving heavy plants or modules inside or outside structures, load skates and toe-jacks are indispensable. Rigging Rentals offers the ToughLift Jacking System for smooth, safe movement without a crane, saving you both time and cost.
10. Portable Gantry Cranes & Custom-Designed Lifting Solutions
When traditional cranes or hoists aren’t suitable due to site constraints, portable gantry cranes or custom-designed lifting solutions are ideal. Rigging Rentals provides these flexible systems for dense urban builds, fit-outs, and MEP works.
