ITEM 20/s – Shock absorber WITH self lowering mechanism

USED FOR:

Transport of single electrodes and electrode columns: It absorbs the strain while the crane raises before the clamp opens.
Jointing: the new electrode can be jointed without damage when suspended from a stationary crane.
Slipping: a cushioning effect against tension that might cause thread damage.

NOTE:

the Piccardi shock absorbers have a self-lowering mechanism inside that allows the hook rotating and lowering with 4 TPI  during the electrodes joining operation.
