There are many types of lifting belts, but they are mainly divided into two types based on their shape: circular lifting belts and flat lifting belts. And flat lifting belts have shown superior protection advantages in practical applications, so why do flat lifting belts have stronger protection?
Firstly, the load-bearing surface of the flat lifting belt is wider, and the contact area with the lifted object is larger. The larger contact area ensures a smaller pressure, thereby reducing the wear between the flat lifting belt and the heavy object.
Then the safety factor of the flat lifting belt is even higher, with a safety factor of 6:1 to 8:1, and it has a super high breaking force. When operating under normal rated load, there is no need to worry about the lifting belt being pulled apart.
Finally, flat lifting belts have excellent characteristics such as corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and can be used for lifting operations in various complex environments such as ports, docks, steel, mechanical installations, etc. without being greatly affected.
From this, it can be seen that flat lifting belts demonstrate superior protection, which is also the main reason why flat lifting belts are more popular.
