How is a tension load cell fitted?

It is fitted in line, typically between the crane hook and the rigging, using shackles. The display shows the load as it is lifted.

Can a load cell be used for proof testing?

Yes, load cells are commonly used with test weights or waterweights to measure and record the test load.

How long can I hire it for?

Daily, weekly or long-term hire. Tell us your dates when you request a Quote and we will price the period that suits the job.

Does it come inspected and certified?

Yes. Every item is inspected and tagged by our team before it leaves the yard, and the current certificate goes with it.

Can you deliver to site?

We deliver nationwide from our branches in South Australia and the Northern Territory (Regency Park, Whyalla and Darwin), or you can collect from your nearest branch.

Not sure which size or type you need?
