Test report on rope pulleys LT/282/2017
At the end of 2017, we sent two types of rope pulleys to a testing laboratory. The tests examined the strength of the pulleys by determining the maximum force required to destroy the product. The tests were carried out by the Product Assessment, Attestation and Certification Unit TEST Sp. z o.o. from Siemianowice Śląskie. We tested a total of six random samples (three each from two models of rope pulleys), which are available in our company's product range. The test items included
rope pulleyswith the following trade names:
- RP-105MM-R-CI-PC
- RP-45MM-W-N
At the beginning of January 2018, we received the test report. The document includes information about the method used and the conditions under which the tests were carried out, as well as the test conclusions. Three random, new samples with no signs of use were tested for each model.
