Why do chain hoists need to undergo no-load testing
published:2025-06-24

The no-load test is similar to a physical examination for a chain hoist. Many experienced users conduct a no-load test before using a chain hoist, and only use the hoist to lift heavy objects and start working after the no-load test is completed. So why do hand pulled hoists need to undergo no-load testing?

Many experienced users, after purchasing a chain hoist, will conduct an inspection to ensure that the purchased chain hoist is not a counterfeit or superficial product. The no-load test is a preliminary inspection of the chain hoist, which can discover whether there are any problems with the chain hoist and whether it can be used normally. The user evaluates the hand chain hoist as a whole based on the empty load test conducted by the hand chain hoist. After no-load testing, the chain hoist ensures safe use and reduces the occurrence of danger during lifting operations, enabling safe and efficient lifting work.

The no-load test is very important, not only before the first use of the chain block, but also before or after each use of the chain block. Conducting a no-load test on a chain hoist can promptly detect any issues with its lifting performance. Users can promptly address any problems that arise during the no-load test, ensuring that the hoist can be safely lifted and improving work efficiency.
