Most lifting belts are used for outdoor lifting operations, which will face various environments, so it is inevitable that the lifting belt will be wet. When the lifting belt is wet, it is better not to carry out frequent lifting operations in the wet condition, because the rated load of the lifting belt will be greatly reduced due to the humidity, thus there is a great potential safety hazard. What should be done when the lifting belt is wet?
The handling of wet lifting belts is very particular. If the belt body of the lifting belt is found to be wet, the correct drying method should be selected to handle it, so as to avoid reducing the performance and rated load of the lifting belt in the wrong way.
Most lifting belts should be hung and placed after being wet, and should not be dried by means of customs clearance, direct sunlight or mechanical air drying. The most correct way should be to place them in a cool and ventilated place for self drying, so as to ensure that the fiber of the lifting belt will not be damaged to the maximum extent.
Therefore, the air drying of the lifting belt is very particular, and it is not allowed to blindly take the wrong means to air dry it, otherwise it will be counterproductive.
