Description
Design Components
Tabless aerial rings have no lifting tab or clip off point. You can use a standard rigging sling, any of the Trix Circus lyra straps and cordes, or a silky ring rope to attach them to your rigging. Our solid aerial rings are made of 22mm stainless steel bar, our hollow aerial rings are made of 25mm stainless steel tube and our semi-solid hoops are made of 27mm stainless steel pipe.
Trix Circus Engineer Certified Aerial Hoops (manufactured from 15 November 2023) are certified for the below loads by an RPEQ (Point & Jade Engineering). These load ratings are from a theoretical analysis for certification purposes and do not replace physical testing. Previous destruction testing has proven the hoops yield a higher MBS (minimum breaking strain) due to work hardening processes (EN1993-1-4 Annex B).
• Material properties are formulated according to EN1993-1-4 Annex C.Â
• All welds are completed in accordance with AS/NZS 1554.6.
Ratings for other Trix Circus hoops are derived only from NATA certified destructive testing, they are not engineer certified. If you’d like to know more about the difference between the types of hoop and certification, please read our blog here.
We use INSIDE DIAMETER as our measurement. The standard sizes are 75cm (kids), 85cm, 90cm, 95cm and 100cm.
Trix Circus aerial rings arrive clean, untaped and ready to personalise. Our tabless rings are sold without rigging. We suggest that you browse our aerial accessories and rigging catalogues to find the slings or silky extensions and hardware that you desire.

The above ratings are from the certification process and do not take into account the effect of work hardening from fabrication.
*User loads must take into account dynamic forces applied.
We use INSIDE DIAMETER as our measurement. The standard sizes are 75cm (kids), 85cm, 90cm, 95cm or custom. Sizes over 95cm are only available in SEMI-SOLID or SOLID material.
