Product information
Everything we publish about a product is either the manufacturer's own stated specification or our own description of it. We check what we publish, and manufacturers change specifications without telling retailers, so measure anything that has to fit before you order it.
This is not advice
The guides and answers on this site are general background. They are not engineering, technical, safety or legal advice, and they are not a substitute for the instructions supplied with a product or for a competent person's judgement on a particular job.
Protective equipment
Where we sell protective equipment we state the standard and the figures the manufacturer states. Whether a particular item is suitable for your hazard is decided by your own assessment and by the certification marked on the product, not by a product listing.
Lifting and power equipment
Rated capacities are the equipment's limits, stated by its maker. They are not targets, and they assume correct rigging, an anchor rated for the load and equipment in good condition. Lifting equipment used at work in Great Britain is also subject to thorough examination under LOLER 1998.
External links
Where we link to another site we do so because it was useful at the time. We do not control those sites and we are not responsible for their content.
Your rights
Nothing on this page affects your statutory rights as a consumer. Those are set out in our refunds and returns policy.
