In the redesigned part, the mass reduced to 0.530 kg (1.168 lbs), which is 74% less than the original component. For load case 1, with an upwards force of 8000 lbs, the Von Mises stress maxed at 871 MPa (126.3 ksi) and had a safety factor of 1.036. In load case 2, with a horizontal force of 8500 lbs, the maximum Von Mises stress was 917 MPa (133 ksi), and the safety factor was 1. Load case 3 involved a 9500 lb force at a 42° angle from vertical; the Von Mises stress peaked at 751 MPa (108.9 ksi) with a safety factor of 1.2. Lastly, under static torsional load, the maximum Von Mises stress was 625.3 MPa (90.7 ksi), and the safety factor was 1.44.
