Here at SafetyLiftinGear, we pride ourselves on being able to provide our customers with high-quality, reliable products. That's why when someone wants to use our products to carry out a test we are more than happy to help. Recently, we were asked to carry out a davit arm test. A davit arm is used for recovery of personnel out at sea, so it's important that the crew are aware of exactly how much weight the davit arm on board can take.
The test was carried out on a davit arm that had recently been installed on a commercial rescue boat. We supplied 150kg of hand test weights and sling shackles so that a live load test could be conducted whilst the rip was on its mooring in Lymington Yacht Haven.
(20kg test weight)
The davit arm was successfully tested and we were all happy with the way it turned out!
If you have any questions about what you may need to test your equipment, we are more than happy to help. For any queries on any of the products, we supply feel free to contact our friendly team.

Manual handling can be a dangerous profession if not done correctly, so it is important your lifting equipment is regularly inspected. But who can inspect lifting equipment?
Under the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER), lifting equipment inspections should be carried out by competent persons. A competent person is someone who has the right experience and knowledge to thoroughly understand what they are looking for. They should be able to spot any signs of weakness or damage that could be a potential hazard. This could be a member of your team with relevant knowledge or could be someone from another organisation.
The person who carries our the lifting equipment inspection must then complete a written report. This report should detail everything about the inspection, such as:
If any defects or damage are found during the inspection, they should be reported immediately so the person in charge can get these sorted as soon as possible.
Though this is typically at the jurisdiction of the person carrying out the inspection, there are a few things which should always be checked. Often, there is a criterion which can be followed and checked off by the competent person. This will include:
This inspection will test if the lifting equipment is safe to use and will not cause harm to those who need it.
As a rule, examinations should be carried out every 6 months for lifting equipment which carries people as this poses the highest safety risk. Lifting accessories should also be inspected every half a year as they can be fatal if damaged. Other types of standard lifting equipment can be inspected yearly if necessary.
At SafetyLiftinGear we offer a professional lifting gear inspection service to help you maintain safe and functional equipment. Get in touch if your equipment is in need of an inspection!

Working at height comes with a number of risks and it is of vital importance that you take all the safety precautions you can. A rescue block can be what saves you from falling and injuring yourself, as they protect you from falling to the ground when working at height. The synthetic rope or cable that is wrapped around the reel of the block works like a retractable lifeline, which suspends you in the air in the event of a fall.
All the rescue blocks we supply are designed to be reliable and effective. The last thing you want to do is doubt the quality of your height safety equipment, so we make sure you don't have to. The rescue blocks have a shock-absorbing system that prevents injury in the event of a fall. The high-quality materials used for each rescue block allow them to be used year after year, as the durable cables can withstand strain time after time without eroding or snapping.
Of course, you must be sure to choose a rescue block that suits your requirements, as each is a different size and has different restrictions. Luckily, our extensive range of blocks means we are confident you will be able to find the product you need.
