Proof-load testing

Many of the components we manufacture are designed specifically to be used in single-line, safety-critical applications and require proof-load testing to prove both the design and manufacture of the finished product. Our in-house Testing Department can perform proof-load testing up to 300 tonnes in various load configurations, including angled pulls and slip testing of clamp to umbilical/ risers or wire ropes, etc. We regularly design customised equipment for bespoke, unusual applications, and can work with your engineering team to design suitable tests for your products.
