Lifting Inspection TuffX Tags

Lifting equipment requires a thorough inspection in accordance with LOLER standards. Reliable and visible markings are an essential part in maintaining the process to ensure no equipment is missed or presents a danger to the user. LOLER inspections are commonly required on lifting slings, shackles and chains.

The REGALTAG self-fastening TUFFX Tags are ideal due to their high durability in tough environments. Being manufactured from a robust rubbery material ensures they do not split or become detached over time.

With a wide range of bright UV-stabilised colours, the TUFFX Tags remain highly visual and ideal for colour-coding your lifting inspections. By changing the colour with every inspection, equipment can be quickly identified as missing an inspection.

Specific inspection TUFFX Tags are stocked and ready for immediate dispatch. Alternatively, get in touch to create a design suited to your system.

Lifting Equipment Covered

TuffX® lifting inspection tags are used across the full range of lifting equipment, including lifting slings (chain, wire rope, webbing, and round slings), shackles, hooks, and swivels, lifting beams and spreader bars, chain blocks and lever hoists, and crane accessories and rigging equipment. Each tag records the equipment identifier, inspection date, inspector name, next inspection due date, and safe working load.

LOLER Compliance

In the UK, the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER) require that all lifting equipment is thoroughly examined at regular intervals by a competent person. TuffX® lifting inspection tags support LOLER compliance by providing a durable, tamper-evident record attached directly to the equipment — always at the point of use, visible to the operator before every lift.

Colour Coding for Lifting Equipment

Colour-coded lifting inspection tags are widely used across oil and gas, construction, and heavy industry to provide immediate visual confirmation of inspection status. The most common system uses a quarterly colour rotation. REGALTAG supplies lifting inspection tags in any colour configuration to match your site standard, or we can design a custom colour code system from scratch.
