The overhaul ball is a component in the crane lifting system that provides the weight required to keep the hoist cable taut and ensure it descends in a controlled manner when no load is attached. It also serves as a connection point for rigging equipment such as slings or shackles during lifting operations. This specific unit is designed for a load capacity of up to 7 tonnes.
This component is compatible with the Terex BT4792 crane model. It is designated as an OHB 150 type ball. Regular inspection for signs of wear, deformation, or structural damage is necessary to maintain the operational safety of the lifting assembly.
Overhaul balls, or headache balls, function by adding sufficient mass to the end of the wire rope to overcome the internal friction of the winch and the weight of the cable itself. By maintaining tension in the line, the ball prevents bird-nesting on the winch drum and ensures the hook block travels accurately to the ground.
