Chain hoist brakes failing How often does it happen?

jeudi 3 juillet 2014

A question that came up in a couple of rigging / safety forums recently:

Have you ever witnessed a chain hoist brake fail catastrophically?

It came up in discussions about the need and suitability of double brake hoist hoists.



Also raised an interesting side line:

How do you know that the first brake hasn't failed and you are actually running on your second brake thus making it a single brake hoist?



I am not a rigger but interested from a risk management perspective.
