Beaver Hand Sheave for Wire Rope 75 mm, 6 mm Wire Rope, WLL 250 kg (558076W)

Beaver hand sheaves to suit wire rope are sheaves on their own: the AIMS product record lists this item as "sheave only", with no frame, hook or shackle. Beaver's manual lists hand sheaves in two ranges, a yellow range to suit wire rope and a red range to suit fibre rope. This listing is the yellow wire rope range, codes ending in W (manufacturer-stated). It carries three sizes, 63, 75 and 102 mm sheave diameter, for 5, 6 and 8 mm wire rope, with WLLs of 250 kg, 250 kg and 500 kg (manufacturer-stated). Beaver's range also lists 89, 114, 125, 150 and 178 mm in the wire rope range (558089W, 558114W, 558127W, 558152W, 558178W).

Beaver does not publish a description, material, finish, bearing or bore for hand sheaves, does not define dimensions A, B and C, and does not say what frame or assembly the WLL applies to. The AIMS product record lists the application as sheave and snatch blocks. Confirm the fit and rating with Beaver or AIMS before ordering.

Working load limit and use

Beaver lists a working load limit (WLL) for each size (manufacturer-stated). Beaver does not say which block or assembly the WLL applies to when the sheave is fitted, or give a proof load. Lifting equipment must be used within its marked working load limit (WLL), inspected before each use, and selected and used in line with your site lifting procedure and the relevant Australian Standards. If you are unsure what suits your lift, contact AIMS or a qualified rigger before ordering.

Key specifications

Codes, sizes, dimensions and working load limits are from Beaver's Materials Handling Technical Manual (Vol. 4). Beaver does not define dimensions A, B and C. D is the sheave diameter and R the wire rope diameter. Beaver sells the sheaves singly (unit of measure: each).

Selecting the right option

Choose the sheave by the wire rope diameter (R) Beaver lists for each size, then check the WLL against your application. Beaver also lists a red range of hand sheaves to suit fibre rope, which this listing does not carry.
