In industrial manufacturing environments, materials are often stored on pallets. Pallets can be easily lifted and moved with a forklift, but the use of a forklift is not always practical, efficient, or safe. In these instances, a below the hook overhead crane pallet lifter attachment is the perfect material handling solution. Hoist mounted pallet lifters turn your hoist into an aerial mounted forklift. Pallet lifters allow you to safely and securely lift and handle pallets just like if you were using a forklift. Available in capacities ranging from 1500 lbs. to 30 tons, below the hook pallet lifters can fit almost any pallet lifting application.

At Tri-State Rigging Equipment we specialize in providing custom designed and fabricated overhead crane pallet lifters to fit any rigging or lifting application. We can also provide you with any standard “off the shelf” below the hook pallet lifter on the market. If you cannot find what you are looking for, or if you don’t know exactly what you need, call or email our sales team to speak with a below the hook product specialist.
