Spanco Workmate
The top of the Workmate range. Above this we would put you on a wire rope hoist rather than chain.
Where it fits
- Jib cranes and workstation bridges, where the hoist runs all shift
- Work that needs the load spotted, not just lifted — dual speed slows the final approach
- Production cells on three-phase power
Features
- Supplied with load chain, chain bucket, two-button pendant, 3 ft power cord, suspension and load hook
- Eyebolt or hook suspension — eyebolt for a fixed point, hook to move it between trolleys
- 10, 15 and 20 ft lifts priced as standard; other lifts to order
- 575V available on the SP250, SP500 and SP1000 on request
- Push and motorised trolleys priced alongside the hoist
Worth knowing
Check the supply before ordering. A 230V hoist on a 460V panel is the most common mistake on a hoist order, and the one a price list cannot catch for you.
