Raw Materials

Low-Carbon Steel I-Beams

Made of rigid low-carbon steel, these I-beams are often used in construction, framing, lifting, and hoisting applications.

Low-Carbon Steel H-Bars

Made of stiff low-carbon steel to deflect less under load, these H-bars are commonly used in machine bases, construction, platforms, and frames.

Multipurpose 6061 Aluminum I-Beams

Also known as American Standard I-Beams, these I-beams have rounded corners.

Architectural 6063 Aluminum H-Bars

More corrosion resistant and easier to form than multipurpose 6061 aluminum, 6063 is primarily used for exterior railings, decorative trim, and door frames.

Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel

From cookware to chemical-processing equipment, 304 stainless steel is a good all-around choice for a wide range of applications.

Structural FRP Fiberglass I-Beams

An alternative to wood in structural applications, FRP fiberglass is strong and lightweight.

Overhead Beam Conveyors

Track for Overhead Beam Conveyors

Track provides the runway for trolleys in manual and powered systems.

Trolleys for Manual Overhead Beam Conveyors

Push these trolleys to move material along the conveyor.

Hooks for Powered Overhead Beam Conveyors

Hooks allow items to rotate 90° while suspended.

Trolleys for Powered Overhead Beam Conveyors

Use with conveying chain to automatically move these trolleys along the beam.

Chain for Powered Overhead Beam Conveyors

Chain connects trolleys and guides movement along the track. It can be assembled and disassembled without tools, yet its design makes it difficult to disconnect while in use.

Hoists and Hoist Trolleys

Hoist Trolleys

Transport hook-mount hoists along a beam.

Chain-Driven Hoist Trolleys

A separate hand chain makes these trolleys easy to move.

Heavy Duty Chain-Driven Hoist Trolleys

These trolleys have a rugged construction for long life.

Motorized Hoist Trolleys

With the touch of a button, these trolleys effortlessly move hoists along your beam.

Easy-Install Hoist Trolleys

Fit these trolleys to your beam by turning a threaded rod or knob to adjust width—there's no need to disassemble the trolley for installation. Use them to transport hook-mount hoists along a beam.

Beam-Travel Hoist Cable Trolleys

Mount these trolleys to your existing beam to create a cable and hose travel system.

Replacement Parts for Electric Chain Hoists

Minimize your downtime—original manufacturer parts keep your hoist in operation.
