How to Rig and Carry UHMWPE Outrigger Pads Safely

Overview

This guide covers the practical steps to rig and carry uhmwpe outrigger pads safely. JSLT GroundMat produces engineering plastic components in UHMWPE, HDPE, PA, POM and PTFE — full-process fabrication from raw sheet to CNC-machined parts.

Step-by-step procedure

1. Use built-in rope handles. Standard pads include polyester rope handles rated 1500kg.
2. Two-person lift heavy pads. Pads > 30kg require two-person lift per safety regulations.
3. Use fork pockets if available. Larger pads with fork pockets safest with forklift.
4. Inspect handles before use. Rope handles deteriorate in UV — replace if frayed.
5. Document lift plan. Pad placement is part of lift plan documentation.
