Full details

FAQs

What is the maximum weight this pulley can lift?

The pulley is rated for a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 250KG.

Does this pulley come with a test certificate?

Yes, it conforms to BS1692-1998 standards, and test certificates are available upon request.

What is the length of the included rope?

The included heavy-duty polypropylene rope is 25 meters long.

Is the rope suitable for wet conditions?

Yes, polypropylene is synthetic and moisture-resistant, making it well-suited for outdoor construction work.

Can I use this pulley on any scaffolding pole?

It is designed to fit standard scaffolding poles, but always ensure the specific scaffold structure is load-rated to support the weight of your lift.

How often should I inspect the pulley?

You should perform a visual inspection before every use and a thorough documented inspection periodically as per site safety regulations.

Troubleshooting

Pulley wheel is stiff or difficult to rotate

Clean the axle area of any dirt or grit and apply a light industrial lubricant to the central pin.

Rope showing signs of fraying at the connection point

Inspect the heat-sealed end and re-seal it with controlled heat if necessary, or check for sharp scaffold burrs that may be cutting the rope.

Hook gate does not close properly

Check the safety spring mechanism for debris; if damaged, do not use the hook for lifting and consider a professional replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High 250KG load capacity suitable for professional construction use
  • Includes a long 25-meter rope ready for immediate deployment
  • Heat-sealed rope ends prevent long-term fraying
  • Robust green finish provides reliable rust protection
  • Certified to BS1692-1998 for site safety assurance

Cons

  • Requires proper mounting knowledge to ensure scaffold stability
  • Heavy-duty construction makes it less portable than lighter-duty pulleys
  • Must be inspected regularly to maintain safety compliance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the unit, place the swivel oval eye over a secure, load-bearing scaffolding tube. Verify that the scaffold itself is tied in or braced to handle the point load of the materials being lifted.

For care and maintenance:

  1. Regularly inspect the wheel for smooth rotation and ensure there is no debris in the track.
  2. Check the rope for signs of core damage, fraying, or chemical contamination after every major use.
  3. Keep the pulley mechanism lubricated if exposure to moisture leads to stiffness.
  4. Store in a dry environment to maximize the effectiveness of the protective green paint coating.
  5. Always keep the test certificate accessible in your site folder for safety inspections.
