What is the rated capacity of the platform clevis?

The rated capacity of the platform clevis is 7,000 lbs. This means that the platform clevis has been specifically designed and tested to safely support loads up to this weight during air transportation operations. Understanding the rated capacity is crucial for ensuring safety and compliance with operational guidelines, as exceeding this limit could lead to failure of the clevis, posing significant risks during air assaults or other helicopter operations. The value reflects the maximum load that the hardware can reliably handle without compromising the integrity of the platform or the safety of personnel involved in the operation.
