A lifting gear register is only as good as the tags that feed it. Choosing tags for your register means deciding how the physical tag connects to the record — and getting that connection right saves hours at every inspection round.
Paper registers: pre-numbered tags
If your register is a spreadsheet or logbook, sequential numbers on each tag let you cross-reference the item to its row. Order tags in blocks with a known starting number so new ranges slot into the register cleanly.
Digital registers: QR-coded tags
A QR code on the tag turns any phone into the register. Scan, see the item's history, record the inspection, done. PrimeTrack links each QR tag to a live asset record with automatic inspection reminders and a scan history.
Tag characteristics that help either way
- Sequential numbering printed clearly.
- A material that survives the gear's environment (PVC or polypropylene for outdoor lifting gear).
- An attachment that won't drop off in service.
- Enough writing area for dates and sign-off.
