At Holloway, we understand that ensuring the safety of your rigging and
lifting equipment is of utmost importance. That's why we offer water bag proof load testing,
one of the best and most cost-effective ways to test your equipment. Our versatile
water-weight bags can test various equipment, including cranes, lifeboats, and structures.
Compared to traditional testing methods, water bag testing is a more
efficient way of proof load testing. It reduces transportation costs, storage and handling
issues, rigging time, and overall testing expenses. As a leading water bag-proof load
testing service provider, we prioritize safety and compliance with OSHA regulations.
So why choose water bag-proof load testing over traditional testing
methods? Keep reading to find out.
Benefits of Water Bag Proof Load Testing
Water-weight bags are an excellent alternative to traditional
solid-weight testing. Here are some undeniable benefits of using water weight bags for proof
load testing:
Easy to transport: Water-weight bags are made from
lightweight,
pliable fabric, which makes them easy to roll up and pack. You can transport
pick-up
trucks and small commercial trailers to the rigging and lifting site, which is
cost-effective.
Prevent shock loading: Shock loading can significantly
lose the
strength or durability of a wire rope. Water weight bags allow you to add test
loads
gradually, which helps you identify the hoisting/braking capability of equipment
and
prevent shock loading.
An infinite number of test loads: With water-weight
bags, you
can add virtually unlimited test loads. All you have to do is alter the weight
using
water meters or force dynamometers, which allows you to add accurate test loads
and
inspect your equipment thoroughly.
No need to lower the test load: You don't need to lower
the test
load with water-weight bags. You can simply drain the water from the bags, which
is
useful when proof testing in hazardous areas.
Reliable: Water bag proof load testing is a trusted and
reliable
way of measuring the strength and durability of your lifting and rigging
hardware. Many
leading companies, including organizations like OSHA, trust this proof load
testing
method.
