Single Girder Rope Hoist

Stronghold’s Single Girder Wire Rope Hoist, also known as a Monorail Hoist, features a European low-headroom design engineered for optimal lifting performance and precise cross-travel. With a minimized hook approach for extended lifting range and improved hook path accuracy, this hoist delivers both efficiency and control. Its innovative balancing system eliminates the need for a counterweight, ensuring smooth, aligned cross-travel. Crafted from high-grade structural steel with exceptional precision and durability, it is the ideal companion for your single girder crane system.

4. Rope Guide

  • Specially designed for easy assembly and lightweight construction, simplifying installation and maintenance.
  • Incorporates a roller-based design that reduces wear on the drum surface, significantly increasing its operational lifespan.

5. Hook Assembly

  • Single shank swivel hook allows smooth 360° rotation, improving load handling flexibility.
  • Heavy-duty safety latch ensures secure lifting and prevents accidental unhooking.
  • High-capacity roller thrust bearing enables smooth rotation under full load with minimal friction.

6. Wire rope

  • 6×36, steel core construction offers excellent strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance.
  • Made with 2160-grade high tensile steel, ensuring superior load-bearing capacity and durability.
  • Flexible design minimise wear on the rope drum, extending both rope and drum life during frequent lifting operations.

7. VFD

  • Custom acceleration and breaking profiles ensure smooth and controlled lifting and lowering.
  • Minimizes vibration, jerks, and mechanical impacts, protecting both load and equipment.
  • Compact space-saving design integrates easily within control panels.
  • Built-in electrical overload protection enhances operational safety and equipment longevity.

8. Limit Switches

  • High-quality, reliable components design for industrial-duty performance.
  • Hoisting limit switch prevents over-lifting or over-lowering safeguarding rope and motor.
  • Dual-stage CT limit switch offers enhanced safety and allows better coverage near girder ends.

9. Travel Wheels

  • Single flange wheels with high-precision machining, hardened and blackodized for superior wear resistance.
  • Premium bearings ensure long-lasting, smooth, and quiet travel.
  • Designed for easy removal and maintenance, reducing downtime during service.

10. Overload Protection
