Steel Weight Rental for Proof Load Testing

Power Delivery has steel test weight available for rent for proof load testing on structures, equipment, or lifting devices to verify their strength, stability, and safety under load conditions. This test ensures that the equipment can handle the intended working load without experiencing permanent deformation or failure. Our extensive inventory ranges from 50 pound steel plates up to 10 tons or more. We offer pickup and delivery to any jobsite for same day and overnight rentals. Contact us to discuss your test weight needs. We are always available!

How It Works

  • Selection of Test Load – The proof load is usually higher than the equipment’s rated working load (typically 1.1 to 1.5 times the maximum working load).
  • Use of Steel Weights – Steel weights are used as the applied load because they provide precise and measurable weight increments.
  • Application of Load – The steel weights are gradually applied to the structure, crane, hoist, or platform under controlled conditions.
  • Monitoring and Inspection – During and after the test, inspectors look for signs of deformation, stress, or structural failure
  • Approval – If the equipment passes without any issues, it is considered safe for operation.
