Electric Hoist

Hoist Types Available

Electric Chain Hoists
Most popular for light to medium duty. Capacities from ¼ ton to 3 ton. Compact, low headroom designs available.
Wire Rope Hoists
Heavy duty applications from 1 to 25 tons. Longer lifts, higher duty cycles, and more precise control than chain hoists.
Air / Pneumatic Hoists
Ideal for explosive atmospheres, painting facilities, food processing, and anywhere electrical equipment is restricted.
Manual Chain Hoists
Hand-operated hoists for infrequent lifting without power. Capacities from ¼ ton to 20 ton, highly portable.

Trolley Options

Push Trolleys
Manually pushed along the beam. Most economical option for low-frequency use and short travel distances.
Geared / Hand-Chain Trolleys
Hand chain for precise manual positioning. Good for applications where motorized travel is unnecessary.
Motorized Trolleys
Electric motor-driven trolleys controlled by pendant or radio remote. Variable speed inverter drive available.

Davit Cranes

Davit

Multi-Socket
Portable Davit Crane

Key Features & Benefits

One Crane, Many Locations
Install multiple socket bases throughout your facility. A single davit crane lifts out of one socket and drops into another — dramatically lower cost than a crane at every point.
Full 360° Rotation
Free rotation on the pillar allows the operator to swing loads clear of hatches, manholes, and vessel openings with precise positioning.
Confined Space Rescue Rated
Fall-arrest and man-rated davit configurations available for OSHA-compliant confined space entry and rescue operations per 29 CFR 1910.146.
Adjustable Boom & Height
Telescoping or multi-position boom designs allow reach and hook height adjustment on site without tools on most models.
Marine & Outdoor Rated
Hot-dip galvanized and stainless hardware options for dock, seawall, and vessel-mounted applications exposed to salt air and moisture.
Multiple Base Options
Floor socket, wall-mount bracket, pedestal, trailer hitch, and portable counterweight base configurations to suit any installation.

Common Applications

Davit cranes solve the problem of needing lifting capability at many separate points without the cost of a permanent crane at each one. They are the standard solution for confined space work and waterfront lifting.

Magnets
& Attachments

Permanent, electro, and battery-powered lifting magnets for steel plate, coil, billet, and scrap handling. Below-the-hook attachments that make your crane dramatically faster and safer for ferrous material handling.

Magnet Types
3:1
Safety Factor
Lifting Magnet Steel Handling

Magnet Types Available

Permanent Lifting Magnets
No power required. A manual lever engages and releases the magnetic field. Ideal for shops without dedicated crane power circuits. Capacities from 100 lbs to 5 tons.
Electromagnets
Powered by DC current from the crane. Highest holding force and fastest cycle times for continuous production. Requires a controller and backup power system.
Battery-Powered Electro
Self-contained rechargeable units combining electromagnet holding force with cordless portability. No crane wiring or slip rings required.
Spreader Beam Magnets
Multiple magnets mounted on a spreader beam for handling long plate, structural beams, and pipe without sag or buckling.

Other Below-the-Hook Attachments

Vacuum Lifters
For non-ferrous materials — granite and stone slabs, glass, sheet aluminum, plastics, and finished panels where magnets will not work.
C-Hooks & Coil Grabs
Purpose-built for steel coil handling. Allows a single operator to lift and place coils without manual rigging or strapping.
Spreader & Lifting Beams
Distribute load across multiple pick points to prevent bending of long or flexible loads. Fixed or adjustable spread configurations.
Drum & Barrel Handlers
Clamp attachments for lifting, tilting, and pouring 55-gallon drums and barrels safely from an overhead crane or forklift.

Common Applications

Lifting magnets eliminate manual rigging for ferrous materials. What used to take two people and several minutes of chaining and strapping becomes a single-operator, several-second operation.

Safety Factor3:1 minimum on rated capacity per ASME B30.20

Important: Magnet rated capacity assumes ideal conditions — flat, clean, thick, low-carbon steel. Thin material, curved surfaces, rust, scale, paint, air gaps, and high-alloy or stainless steel all substantially reduce holding force. Always derate accordingly and never lift personnel or carry loads over people. We will help you calculate safe working capacity for your specific material.
