Secutex Fixed Coating

If the edge radius is smaller than the thickness of the lifting strap, the edge is considered „sharp“. Lateral motion or pressure alone may be enough to cut through the textile fibres of the lifting strap. The 56 mm secutex coating sits between the load and the textile load lifting accessory. The edge radius is increased by this layer. The edge is no longer sharp against the lifting strap and lift forces are directed away from the edge.

secutex has developed the new “TopDrain” structure surface for lifting wet or oily components. Most of the damages at sharp or rough edges are caused by the movement of the load across the sling. In the case of loads with a “sharp edge” or with a very rough surface, a protective sleeve or fixed coating must be used to protect the textile lifting sling. If the load moves sideways, a cutting movement on the edge is the result. Similar to a knife blade, the edge can cut through the fibers of the textile sling. The new “TopDrain” surface drainage provides good adhesion of the protective sleeves and the coated lifting slings even on wet and oily materials. The liquid can drain off into the surface hollows and the load lies securely in the lifting sling. The “TopDrain” structure works like a drainage and ensures the frictional connection of the secutex coating to the load.

secutex [S1] and secutex [S2] Coated with secutex on one side or equally on both sides, this version is particularly robust and extremely cutresistant.

In addition to loads with rightangled edges, there are also transportable goods with different geometry. These include loads with projecting spines and with sharp or jagged external contours such as gearwheels, turbine blades, etc. These edges are not addressable using normal approaches. The secuwave protective sleeve was developed for components with extremely critical edges. secuwave increases the deflection radius. The „sharp edge“ has no contact with the protective sleeve and thus cannot cut it.
