01

Proof Loading

We proof load slings, chains, and rope assemblies on our state of the art 1.2 million pound pull test machine to ensure your rigging, lifting, and pulling equipment is ready to perform to its working load limit, without permanent deformation or damage.

02

Destructive Testing

Our destructive testing services provide a definitive look at how your rope performs under extreme stress. By testing to the breaking point, we validate the ultimate strength of your system and its terminations to ensure every component meets its mission critical requirements.

03

Lifecycle Testing

Our testing team performs comprehensive lifecycle evaluations to simulate the most demanding operational environments. Through specialized crush, drop, abrasion, creep, and chemical testing, we provide the data necessary to ensure your synthetic rope solution performs reliably throughout its entire expected service life.

04

Custom Testing

Our testing, quality and engineering teams develop proprietary jigs and fixtures to enable custom performance testing that mirrors your unique real-world applications. We work directly with your team to design and execute any specialized test methodology your project requires.
