Aluminum Tie Rod Jib Cranes (AL100) are typically the most economical jib crane types, because they require only a tie rod instead of a full mast for support (Less steel = less cost). They contain a single tie rod, right hand threaded at both ends, for easy boom adjustment and installation. They use a lightweight, high strength extruded aluminum enclosed track boom. These tie rod jibs are ideal for swinging around obstacles or under obstructions. Here are some key features of our Aluminum Tie Rod Jib Crane:
• Lightweight aluminum enclosed track design
• Allow for 200° of continuous rotation
• Available in capacities to 2000 lbs.
• Sufficient clearance throughout the arc of the boom must exist to accommodate the tie rod suspension
