Repairing Aging and Obsolete Crane Boom

Repairing Aging and Obsolete Crane Boom

WHECO was given the challenge to provide repairs to an older Lima boom tip section that was damaged as the result of a two-blocking accident. Since this was an out-of-production component, WHECO provided an engineered repair to restore the boom tip to its original design. In addition to the tip damage, there was also chord and lacing damage that required repair. Using third-party metallurgical testing, we were able to source and replace two chords and 95 percent of the lacings. The following series of photos depicts the repair process. WHECO is a valued resource for repairing aging and obsolete crane boom and other crane components.
