Allows for expanded speed adjustments, improved load control, high duty cycles, and increased crane life.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Largely maintenance-free design with field-proven components designed for low wear and long service life.
Extensive Safety Features
Standard safety features include block-operated limit switch, adjustable geared limit switch, motor, temperature control, and overload protection.
Heavy-Duty Applications
Hoists available with H3, H4, and H4+ duty cycles.
Base Mounted
A hoist designed to be bolted onto a crane trolley or supporting structure. Similar to a deck mount, but typically has mounting pads/feet that keep the hoist body completely above the deck.
Top Running (double girder) Trolley
Extremely compact with minimal hook approach and headroom dimensions. The flexible design ensures that all 4 wheels are in contact with the girder. Available for 1 to 55 ton capacities.
