Hippolift Steel Fixed-Height Portable Gantry Cranes
Hippolift Steel Fixed-Height Portable Gantry Cranes
Wallace Hippolift steel, fixed-height portable gantry cranes are an economic alternative to our steel tri-adjustable cranes. The Hippolift is designed with a fixed height and caster frame spread.
The Hippolift is available in 1-3 and 5-ton capacities and offers an adjustable span allowing options for in-board or out-board bracing and cantilever configurations. The Hippolift may be customized to meet your specific height and span requirements. Our cranes are ideal for maintenance, manufacturing, repairs, and other material handling tasks.
The Hippolift is built using our patented pinned-joint design that results in a longer-lasting, better fitting, more flexible crane that is easy to assemble and disassemble.
Many customers use our cranes for HVAC, assembly, and repairs of physical equipment. Some of our current users include electric utilities, municipal maintenance (including subways, buses, and building facilities), hospitals, universities, research institutions, and the military.
