Channel-Travel Hoist Cable Trolleys

For Round Cable/Air Hose

For Flat Cable

Mount these trolleys to your existing channel to create a cable and hose travel system. They’re also known as festoon trolleys.

Stainless steel trolleys are more corrosion resistant than steel trolleys. You can use them in a variety of environments, including those with exposure to chemicals or moisture.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Channel-Travel Hoist Cable Trolley Systems

Also known as festoon kits, these systems keep your hoist’s cable or hose tangle-free and out of the way. They include a series of small trolleys that travel along steel channel so they are stronger and run straighter than wire rope-travel systems and are better for high speeds. Round cable, air hose, and flat cable are sold separately.

Additional parts can be used to expand a trolley system or build your own trolley system.

Minimum required cable/hose length is based on 6 ft. of cable or hose between trolleys plus an additional 7 1/2 ft. at each end.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Trailer Movers

Make moving and positioning trailers an easier job. The long handle on these movers gives you the leverage you need to roll the trailer. It has a removable hitch ball for connecting to a trailer. The wheels are flat free for easy rolling. Vertical capacity (also known as tongue weight) represents the weight of the load on the drawbar ring or hitch ball.
