The Tirfor wire rope hoist was built to be safe, reliable. It can pull and lift at a faster rate with less effort. Suitable for any lifting and pulling job, the Tirfor is particularly useful for longer pulls and higher lifts since any length of rope can be used. The Tirfor is a manual, hand-operated hoist and can be used anywhere – no electricity required.
Designed specifically to be used with maxiflex wire ropes with one hook end of any length to suit the application. The wire ropes can be easily removed from the hoist and replaced with longer tirfor wire ropes. Tractel’s Tirfor wire rope is the result of 30+ years of R&D experience and was developed to be the perfect companion to your Tirfor.
The TU series uses a different jaw shape to its older companion, the T500 series Tirfor hoist. The T500 Tirfor hoist only has two same shape jaws; whereas the newer TU hoist has jaws shaped like a ‘U’ which provides more grip and pressure to make the hoist stronger. Due to its strength and durability, the TU series Tirfor hoist is approved by UL and is qualified to be used as man-riding equipment.
THE ‘U’ ADVANTAGE
• The U-shaped jaws maintain cylindrical shape of the rope resulting in increased mechanical yield and ensures maximum life
• Can be very easily dismantled and reduces the amount of time to maintain
• Allows considerable savings in the number of parts to be repaired
• Perfect choice of hoist if used in daily operation
EASE OF USE
• Works in any position: horizontal, vertical, or angled
• Easy installation and operation
• Lightweight and portable – less effort and manpower are required
CONVENIENT
• Can be positioned in any anchoring place
• Does not need to change anchor points, as continuous pull is possible
• Direction of pull can be adjusted using sheave blocks
• Reduced maintenance
SAFE AND RELIABLE
• All Tirfor units come equipped with overload shear pins to prevent damage to the hoist if the maximum weight capacity is exceeded
• Can operate in reverse
• Built with experience and quality for longevity: Tirfor has been a customer favourite for decades
TU28 SPECIFICATIONS
• Nominal Capacity:
• 4,000 lb. for material handling
• 3,000 lb. for man-riding
• Wire rope diameter: 7/16 in.
