What materials are SM davits made of?
• High-Grade Materials: Steelhead materials are meticulously selected to the highest standards to maximize durability, strength, performance and on-board weight reductions. • Steelhead uses state-of-the-art marine grade materials to provide the lightest and strongest cranes in the industry (also used in our standpipes and custom bases): • – 17-4 PH Stainless Steel Truck Assemblies (equivalent strength to Aquamet 17; 4.2X stronger than 5086 aluminum or stainless) • – 6061 – T6 Aluminum Main Boom Bodies (27% stronger than 5086 aluminum) • – 2205 Duplex Stainless Boom Extensions (2.2X stronger than 316 stainless) 7. What are the benefits of Am Steel rope? AM Steel Composite Rope has many benefits. Is 40% stronger than standard steel cable, it is non rotating, has no memory and doesn’t splinter as it ages, and can track on smaller sheaves than cable can (8:1 ratio for rope, 20:1 ratio for cable). Rope can be easily shortened while still installed in the crane whereas cable has to be remove
