Recertification
Technical Data Sheet: Recertification Services
Barry provides recertification of longlines and short-haul ropes made by Barry or by others. The recertification process covers the complete assembly (including textile and metal components).
Break-tests for residual tensile strength on products submitted are performed and third-party certified by SGS.
Barry does not recertify helicopter cargo nets but will repair the cargo nets as necessary. Cargo nets repair kits are available from Barry and repair instructions are available from the Barry website (http://www.barry.ca/publication/rt-barry-helinet-repair-guidelines.pdf).
Products submitted for recertification must have:
Normative references:
Recertification process:
1. Make sure that all documentation is available (logbook, up-to-date inspection sheet and proof that product is not under a recall).
2. Complete a visual and tactile inspection documented by notes and photographs.
3. Cut off a 3 m (10 ft) end section: Splice the free end and perform a break test to reveal residual tensile strength.
4.Compare results versus rope and hardware in new condition.
5. Re-qualify WLL as per results and observations. The product will be recertified to the design factor specified by the customer (ex: 7:1, 10:1, etc).
6. Re-splice one (or both) end(s) of the longline. Wash and re-coat with Barrythane UV shield and replace damaged metal components if required (at extra cost).
7. Re-label.
8. Issue a new Certificate of Conformity.
