can,t see photo, so am assuming they are your own. How long have yoi had them and how did they break? Did you inform the hse? Time and time again i see guys in the hole with a ring swinging above them and pins in the wrong way round. I've seen them shake lose being wrong way whilst tracking along on 360. They break so easy, so do bones.

did you post a photo or just post broken haha

we have a few sets ones you push through and then slide a washer and split pin or ones that slide through then the end cranks over and slides down to make a T shape.

sean by pins in the wrong way round what you mean, the rings outside the manhole ring?

Nice, I like them.

We have got the ones with the eyes and a threaded section and nuts. Fiddly, but don't often lift Milton rings in these days.

yes the rings should be outside. Yes i know before you say it, 'if you lift two rings that way they will tip and you'll smash one.' But you are'nt supposed to lift two.
