Non-Sparking Materials: Constructed with spark-resistant components to eliminate ignition risks from friction or impact.
Precise Load Control: Hand chain and gear mechanism provides smooth, accurate horizontal positioning along I-beams or H-beams.
Hazardous Area Certified: Ideal for grain handling, paint facilities, and areas with flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dust.
ATEX Certified Compliance: Engineered and manufactured in strict accordance with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU and Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC for safe use in explosive Gas & Dust Zones.
Spark-Free Wheels: Equipped with solid bronze or copper-plated wheels to eliminate friction sparks while traveling along the I-beam or H-beam.
Corrosion Resistant: Features a copper-plated hand wheel, hanging plate, and stainless steel fixings/fasteners, offering superior durability in corrosive chemical environments.
Stainless Steel Hand Chain: Comes standard with a 304 stainless steel hand chain to prevent sparking during operation and resist rust.
Impact Protection: Fitted with rubber buffers to absorb impact and prevent metal-to-metal contact with end stops or other equipment.
Heavy Duty Capacity: Offers an impressive load capacity range from 1 Ton up to 30 Ton, suitable for heavy industrial rigging in oil refineries, offshore rigs, and paint plants.
Precise Positioning: The geared mechanism allows for accurate load placement with minimal effort, even for heavy loads.

What is a Travel Trolley?
A push or geared travel trolley is a device designed to move heavy loads horizontally along an I-beam or similar track. It consists of a frame, wheels (rollers), and a suspension point for attaching a hoist or load.
Push vs. Geared: Which one to choose?
Push (Plain) Trolley: Best for infrequent movement or relatively light loads (typically up to 3 tons). Suitable where the beam height is below 6m (20ft). The operator simply pushes the load to move it.
Geared Trolley: Recommended for heavier loads (over 3 tons), higher beam elevations (>6m), or where precise positioning is required. Operated by pulling a hand chain which drives the wheels via gears.

Safety Guidelines
Always
Store and handle trolleys correctly in a clean, dry area.
Inspect trolleys, blocks, and accessories before use.
Ensure the wheel profile matches the track/beam type.
Verify the trolley width is correctly set for the beam width.
Ensure the track is fitted with positive end stops.
Push (rather than pull) loads suspended on push trolleys.
Never
Never expose trolleys to chemicals (like acids) without consulting the supplier.
Never force or wedge the suspension hook onto the load bar.
Never throw or drop a trolley.
Never use a trolley with chipped or damaged wheel flanges.
Never obliquely side load a trolley (this can cause tipping or detachment).
Installation & Maintenance Guide
Installing and Commissioning
Ensure the runway track is level and has an even surface. Check that positive end stops are installed. Verify the trolley width is set correctly with spacers centered. Confirm anti-tilt devices are properly adjusted. If re-assembling, ensure all bolts and nuts are fully tightened.
Using Trolleys Safely
Do not side load! The trolley must be placed directly over the center of gravity of the load. Oblique side loading causes tipping and can lead to the trolley falling off the track. For push trolleys, push the load rather than pulling it to maintain better control.
In-service Inspection
Regularly inspect for wear on wheel treads and flanges. Check for insecure wheels, loose axle pins/nuts, or distorted side plates. Ensure hand chains (on geared models) are not damaged. Keep wheel running surfaces clean and free of oil/grease contamination to ensure traction.
