The wear and tear of a chain hoist during use is inevitable. As long as a chain hoist is running, it will inevitably be in a state of wear and tear at all times, because its operation requires the interaction force between various components. This is a process of wear and tear, and what we need to do is to reduce this wear and tear. So, what should we do?
If you want to reduce the wear and tear of the chain hoist and extend its service life, you must start from two points. Firstly, you must carry out lifting operations within the rated load of the chain hoist. Overloading will inevitably increase the load on each component, thereby making the wear and tear more severe in the interaction; ② Regularly clean and lubricate the hand chain hoist. During long-term use, it is inevitable that dust, impurities, and moisture will enter, which will seriously affect the smooth operation of the hand chain hoist. Dust and impurities will intensify the friction during the operation of the hand chain hoist, while moisture can easily cause rusting of the hand chain hoist. Therefore, maintenance work should be carried out in a timely manner.
The above two points are the key to reducing the wear of chain hoists. We cannot stop the wear of chain hoists, but there are ways to reduce this wear, which can effectively maintain the service life of chain hoists.
