A ferry operator sent us a damper for overhaul the other day. And it’s a good job they did – as you can see from the image, the o-ring has worn a groove in the inner star. This’d be okay if the groove was no more than 2.5% of a cross-section of the o-ring. But it’s not. It’s double that, at 5%. We’ll need to bring it back to spec by metal spraying, as leaving it to get worse could cause greater problems and create significant risk. We’ll also need to replace the other o-ring – time has made it brittle, so it’s snapped in several places. The takeaway? Sticking to recommended maintenance intervals – regularly maintaining all your components ensures you spot any issues before they spiral out of control and require more extensive work. Do you stick to recommended maintenance intervals? #Geislinger #Maintenance #Marine ✉️ [email protected] 📞 Colchester +44 (0) 1206 791552 | Aberdeen +44 (0) 1224 602940 🌐 https://lnkd.in/dj5SdvT3

🏖️🏰 Maybe it’s because I’ve been hanging around my Cat® Paving colleagues too long, but they’ve ruined my vacation mindset 😅 I can’t even build a sandcastle without putting into practise the importance of good material compaction and the effect it has on the longevity of projects… In this case, the castle to the left had significant compaction whilst the castle to the right did not… Easy to see the outcome! #CatPaving #Caterpillar #ConstructionEquipment #Paving #Rollers #RoadConstruction #RoadMaintenance #RentalEquipment #Rental #Construction

You’ve probably never given your dock step this much thought… But if you have, you no longer need to worry about: Lifting and carrying a heavy, bulky dock step. ↳ That strains your back.

At the risk of offending “road workers”.. (if that’s even a term for them)… I’ve just passed (over a 20 minute journey) 4 sets of road works, involving diggers and various bits of specialist machinery. In each case, one person was doing the “work” (operating the digger and digging the hole etc) and at least 2 others (in one case it was 5!) were standing around, watching. Literally just looking at the hole being dug. Doing nothing else. Standing, hands in pockets, watching.. Is this normal? Am I being unfair, and their job involves more than just watching (and I clearly don’t understand the intricacies of digging holes). Is it a health and safety thing? From just glancing at these scenes, it appears (to a layperson like me) that there’s surely room for improved efficiencies that would benefit everyone, not just the frustrated commuters wanting to get to their destinations.
