Crane & Material Handling Forging
Every crane component carries a load over people's heads. That single fact drives the standards: forged construction, proof load testing, permanent marking and certification without exception.
- Working Load Limits
- 0.5 T – 30 T
- Materials
- EN8, EN19, 42CrMo4
- Proof Test
- 100%, per applicable standard
- Inspection
- MPI after proof loading
- Marking
- WLL, grade, size, batch
- Applications
- EOT cranes, mobile cranes, hoists

Ductile Failure Is a Safety Feature
Lifting components are designed to visibly deform before failing, giving warning to anyone nearby. Forged material tempered to the right condition behaves that way; a hard, brittle part fails without warning.
- Visible deformation before failure
- Proof load tested 100%
- Permanent WLL marking
- Certificate per batch
Sheaves, Shafts and Slew Rings
Beyond hooks and rigging, cranes need sheave shafts, slew ring blanks, boom pins and connecting links — all rotating or pinned components where fatigue and wear determine the inspection interval.
Testing and Certification
Proof loading to the standard's multiple of working load limit, followed by magnetic particle inspection and dimensional check, with a certificate traceable to the heat number.
