Another pain point for crane applications is simply and most often related to…availability. In this case, you know exactly what you’re looking for and that’s probably basket-crane cable. The problem you’re likely running into is that you just can’t get your hands on it when you need it during cold-weather months. Due to seasonal supplier shutdowns, basket-crane cable becomes as difficult and costly to track down as Bigfoot. If scarcity is a problem for you this time of year, no worries, TPC has you covered – because we keep our Super-Trex Basket-Crane in stock and ready for same-day shipping, always! TPC’s basket-crane cable is designed for use on lifting equipment, spreader cranes, and other gravity-fed crane systems:
- Size 2.5mm2 x 42 conductors
- Polyurethane jacket protects against abrasion and weather extremes
- Inner construction with aramid reinforcement for increased tensile strength
- Lead-chain weights add mass for stability in outdoor environments
