Round Is a Shape Too! When it comes to securing pins, shafts, and rounds during inspections, Inspection Arsenal® specialty clamps and vises deliver exceptional results. However, there are a few remarkable items that truly stand out in the industry for holding shafts and pins efficiently. Lets take a closer look: Spring-Load Chuck Hold rounds parts 1/16” to 18” Self-adjusting and reversible. Holding parts by the inside or outside diameter. Three springs can be used independently or together, offering clamping force options from approximately 1.59 to 14.73 pounds. Tool-less operation makes loading and unloading easy!

The Konecranes Hook Latch Trigger - How does it work? The trigger is easily set to hold the latch in the open position. As the sling, shackle or other attachment is inserted into the hook, or removed from the hook, the trigger is released and the latch closes without further action from the operator. When used properly, the latch trigger can reduce or remove the tendency of an operator to interfere with the latch using tape, zip ties or other temporary fastening, encouraging safer and faster load setup. The Hook Latch Trigger can be installed in minutes on a range of existing hooks.

Are you under the illusion that cargo security bolt seals are more secure than cable seals? The opposite is true. Bolt seals can be tampered with through various methods, the simplest of which is called "bolt spinning." The hat is held in place while the pin is spun until it is released from the hat. Now you might be wondering about the highly marketed "un-spinnable bolts." First you have to understand that there is no standard for bolt design in the cargo security seal industry. Operators in the field have no way of knowing if a bolt is so-called "un-spinnable" and thus in tact, or cut and glued or "threaded" back together, thus the bolt will be cut and discarded without inspection and at the end of the day, you have no visibility into the security of your cargo or weak spots in your supply chain. Check out our full breakdown of bolt seal tampering in our latest post on the Redflag page.

AMH issues warning over swivel hook confusion Confusion over swivel hooks is creating safety risks and increasing costs for lifting companies, according to industry veterans. All Material Handling, Inc. (AMH) says that the industry using the same name for two types of hooks can lead to the wrong hook being used in a range of applications. There are two types of swivel hooks and mixing them up can have serious consequences. “There are key differences between a standard swivel hook with a bronze bushing and a ball bearing-style swivel hook, but not everyone understands those differences,” said Lukasz Biela, regional sales manager at AMH. According to AMH, a bronze bushing hook should really be called a positioning hook because it can swivel into position when attached to the pick point. While this is useful, this type of hook can’t swivel while lifting a load. It will successfully move the load a few times but will also slowly shear the shank – that will ultimately lead to a sling twist or a full failure. “Make sure you know if the hook is designed to swivel under load, or if it’s only intended to swivel for positioning,” said Biela. 👉 For more information, please visit - https://lnkd.in/enp36miK #ochmagazine #news #AMH

Day's information ℹ️ When inspecting a chain hoist, focus on the following: 1. Load Chain : Check for wear, elongation, corrosion, and kinks. 2. Hooks : Look for cracks, deformation, and proper latch operation. 3. Chain Sprockets : Ensure there is no excessive wear or damage. 4. Load Blocks and Suspension : Inspect for cracks, deformation, and wear. 5. Brakes : Confirm they engage and release properly, without unusual wear. 6. Housing and External Parts : Check for damage or deformation. Regular inspections ensure safe and efficient operation.
