Selection & enquiry guidance

Choosing travel trolleys for the application

Travel trolleys allow suitable hoists or loads to move along a compatible beam. Capacity, beam flange dimensions, trolley type, headroom and the equipment being suspended all need to be matched before selection.

Beam dimensions

Provide the beam profile or flange width and thickness across the intended travel route.

Capacity and suspension

Send the load and details of the hoist or equipment that will be suspended from the trolley.

Operation and headroom

Confirm whether push or geared travel is required and any available-headroom restrictions.

Common questions
