EZ lift pins
EZ lift pins
The Lane EZ Lift Pin is the original manhole lift pin. Developed over 20 years ago, the Lane EZ Lift Pin offers the precaster and contractor an ideal and versatile lifting product that is also cost effective.

Each pin is injection molded polypropylene around a 1-1/8” diameter ASTM A-615 Grade 60 reinforcing bar. The polypropylene material conforms to ASTM D-4101 specifications.
LOAD CAPACITY:
The working load limit is 4,000 lbs. per pin
* Ultimate load is four times the working load.
additional EZ lift pin parts:
Threaded inserts
The one-piece Lane Threaded Inserts are precisely manufactured to fit the Lane EZ Lift Pin.
These heavy-constructed Threaded Inserts are a one-piece injection molded part. This insures a water and vacuum tight fit.
The outside rings eliminate infiltration or exfiltration along the outside of the part.
Suitable for both wet and dry cast operations.
Be assured of a positive fit each and every time.
The Lane Threaded Inserts are to only be used with the original Lane EZ Lift Pins.
Threaded Insert Holder
The Lane Threaded Insert Holder was designed to allow for easy installation of the Threaded Insert in both wet and dry cast operations from outside the jacket.
INstalation instructions:
Installation requires drilling a 2-1/2” dia. hole in the jacket. Simply weld the machined bushing centered over the drilled hole with the handle at the 5 o’clock position.
Screw the Threaded Insert on to the Insert Holder and slide through the bushing. Rotate the handle and lock into place.
To remove the Insert Holder, simply lift up on the handle and unscrew.
Threaded Insert Holder Magnets
The Threaded Insert Magnets are the perfect solution where insert location changes depending on product. Simply locate the position where the Insert is required on your form and the magnet securely holds the Insert during the pour.
Wet Cast Forming Pin
The Wet Cast Forming Pins are designed to create perfectly formed holes for the Lane EZ Lift Pins. Simply weld the bushing to the outside of the form and insert the Forming Pin.
Installation instructions
Drill two 1-1/2” dia. holes in the wall of the form directly apart from each other. Tack weld steel bushing to outside of form and insert pin.
Simply tap the pin’s handle to rotate and remove. Keep the pin clean to assure consistent hole sizes.
Once the concrete has cured to at least a 3,000 PSI compression strength, the EZ Lift Pins can be driven in with a 6 –8 lb. sledge hammer.
Dry cast sizing inserts
Lift holes in the dry cast manholes are formed after the 1-1/2” dia. steel hole forming pins are hydraulically or mechanically retracted. To ensure proper sizing of the lift holes during the curing process, insert the dry cast sizing pins into the preformed 1-1/2” dia. lift hole. Make sure the insertion ring is flush with the outside wall of the manhole.
We recommend removing the pins prior to the initial set of the concrete.
