What actually travels together
A mixed container is loaded in the order the destination unloads it. Weight decides what goes at the bottom.

A builders' merchant
Rope drums and chain at the bottom, boxes of shackles and turnbuckles on top, then discs, drill bits and protective equipment in the last third. The heavy families hold the floor and the consumables fill the rest.
- 02
A port supplier
Rope coils are bulky and light, so they ride on top of the galvanized rope and the stainless fittings. Plate clamps and snatch blocks are dense and go against the doors, unloaded first.

An industrial distributor
Hoists and trolleys in their own cartons, tool sets and power tools palletised by line. Elevator parts are boxed and labelled apart: they get re-ordered for years.
Before the first order
What each yard asks
01 · Construction and infrastructureGrade 80 or grade 100 chain?
Grade 100 carries about 25 % more on the same diameter, so it saves weight on long slings. Grade 80 is what most sites stock and what older lifting plans specify.
02 · Ports and sea fishingAISI 304 or AISI 316 fittings?
On a quay, 316. The added molybdenum is what resists chloride pitting; 304 is for covered or inland work and costs less.
03 · Industry and maintenanceChain block or lever hoist?
A chain block hangs from a beam and lifts vertically with a hand chain. A lever hoist pulls in any direction with a short handle, which is how a crew aligns a load sideways.
04 · Elevator installation and serviceWhat do you need from us to quote an elevator part?
Rail size and car speed for guide shoes and safety gear, motor power and input voltage for drives, rope diameter and construction for traction rope. A photo of the plate on the old part settles most cases.
05 · Mining and quarryingRotation-resistant or 6x36 rope?
Rotation-resistant rope is for a single fall on a long drop, where an ordinary rope would spin the load. For multi-part reeving a 6x36 with steel core lasts longer and costs less.
06 · Transport and logisticsDoes transport chain need a grade mark?
Yes. Road enforcement reads the embossed grade on the link and the tag on the assembly; an unmarked chain is treated as grade 30 whatever it is made of. Grade 70 is the transport grade and is not for lifting.
