Conquip Mechanical Manhole Ring Lifter 2500kg

Adjustable mechanical clamp for crane-lifting precast manhole rings, cones, shaft sections and base units. Single-operator release from the cab.

The Conquip Mechanical Manhole Ring Lifter is an adjustable clamping grab designed for crane-lifting and placing precast concrete manhole rings, cones, shaft sections and base units. The mechanism is operated entirely by the machine driver from the cab, so ground crew never need to enter the trench or working zone to couple or uncouple the unit. The grab adjusts to suit different ring diameters, covering the full range of standard precast manhole components from a single piece of equipment.

Suitable Applications

The Mechanical Manhole Ring Lifter is standard equipment for drainage and utilities works requiring precast manhole construction. Common applications include surface water drainage, foul drainage, deep drainage chambers, pumping station shaft construction and sewerage projects. For lighter-duty applications using webbing slings rather than mechanical clamping, see the manual Manhole Ring Lifter; for individual ring lifts the steel-pin Manhole Ring Lifting Pin range may also be appropriate.
