What issues should be paid attention to when using lifting belts in steel mills

Steelmaking plants are a hazardous environment with complex working environments and high temperatures. Chain slings are commonly used for heavy object lifting, but some equipment is expensive and not suitable for using chains. In this case, it is necessary to use lifting belts for lifting.

When using lifting equipment with lifting belts in steel mills, it is important to pay attention to temperature issues, as the temperature range of the lifting belt is between -40 ℃ and 100 ℃. If not used within this range, it is easy to cause damage to the lifting belt and cause the lifting object to fall off. Therefore, it is important to note that the lifting belt should not come into contact with open flames and should not be used in extremely high temperature environments. As long as the surface of the lifting belt does not come into contact with objects exceeding 100 ℃, it can still be used in this environment.

In addition to steel mills, it is also important to pay attention to this issue when using lifting belts in areas with high operating temperatures. Operation should be carried out within the temperature specifications for lifting belts to avoid damage to lifting belts caused by excessive temperatures, which may affect the safety of lifting operations.
