Ring Testing

We want to bring you the highest quality rings possible. To ensure quality we submit our rings to rigorous testing. During our design phase we perform the following tests:

• Impact Testing
• Pull Testing
• Soaking in bleach and then a full washer/dryer cycle
• Freezing followed by additional impact testing
• Heating followed by additional pull testing

It was considered a success when multiple rings went through all of these steps without breaking. One ring alone will actually lift a 3000 pound machine, without breaking.

Additionally, each ring is individually tested and inspected before shipment. It must pass an impact test and a 250 pound pull test before being considered ready to ship.

Our aluminum rings cannot be individually tested due to the nature of the material. Instead these rings are batch tested every 100 rings for continuity and ductility. They are also periodically tested by an outside testing facility, and meet the same rigorous requirements as our nylon rings.
