Shock Loading Explained | Arrowhead (PACCAR) Winch & Hoist Damage Prevention Tips

Learn how to identify, prevent, and inspect for shock loading on Arrowhead / PACCAR winches and hoists. Shock loading is a sudden jarring force that can seriously damage critical parts—especially the brake clutch (sprag)—and shorten equipment life. 🔧 What You’ll Learn: • What causes shock loads: sudden drops, hidden obstacles, quick starts/stops, wind, or waves • Why slower, smoother operation protects the brake clutch, sprag, and internal gears • How to spot early signs of damage, such as wire rope distortion or sprag indentations • Recommended inspections, including magnetic particle inspection (MPI) of the ring gear and periodic brake tests 💡 Quick Tip: Even minor shock loads add up. Regular inspections and smooth handling prevent costly failures and extend your hoist’s service life. 📌 Resources & Support Contact your nearest Arrowhead / PACCAR Winch distributor or visit https://www.arrowheadwinch.com for detailed maintenance guidelines. #ShockLoading #WinchSafety #HoistSafety #ArrowheadWinch #PACCARWinch #BrakeClutch #SpragClutch #IndustrialEquipment #PreventiveMaintenance
