What comes at the end of the hoist cable is just as important to inspect, maintain and certify as the hoist itself!

Technically, engineers refer to these items as Below The Hook devices.  They include such things as spreader bars, sheave assemblies, slings and cables.  In oilfield rig work, they also include such things as elevators and bails.  In a manufacturing environment, they include things like grapples, sheet lifters and coil lifters.  In any lifting system with a rated capacity of 2000 kg or more, Section 89 from the Alberta OH&S Code Part 6 applies:

Non-destructive testing

89 An employer must ensure that all load-bearing components of a mobile crane undergo non-destructive testing under the direction and control of a professional engineer in accordance with the manufacturer's specification at 12-month intervals from the date of the mobile crane's most recent certification.

Below The Hook devices are load-bearing components and fall under this regulation.  We can inspect and certify your Below The Hook devices.  We can work out a capacity for an existing device for which you have that you no longer have documentation.  We can design and certify a device from scratch to meet your requirements.

When it comes to Below The Hook, we are your complete solution.
