Reid T-Davit Lightweight and Portable Davit, for Lifting or Man-Riding Applications

T-Davit - Portable and Lightweight Aluminium Davit from Reid Lifting

The "T Davit" is a lightweight and portable lifting system and can be custom-designed and manufactured to specifically meet our customers’ individual needs. Truly pioneering, it offers a lifting capacity of up to 600kg and 360° rotation under a full load.

Ideal for use in confined space access and egress. Different column heights and beam options enable access to a variety of specific work environments, and the durable design will ensure years of trouble-free use.

The "T Davit" is available in a range of configurations and can be customised in line with specific requirements (subject to WLL rating).

The "T Davit" can be used with a wide range of lifting appliances, enabling customers to tailor their lifting solution to site and job-specific requirements. This flexibility enables customers to utilise existing lifting appliances in many cases, enabling efficient use of assets.

• Manual or electric winches can be mounted onto the TDAVIT column, with cables feeding through sheaves to the front of the davit.
• Manual or electric chain hoists can be hooked from the shackles on the head of the TDAVIT beam.
• Endless winches can be hooked from the shackles on the head of the TDAVIT beam for raising goods over greater distances.

REID offers a wide range of brackets to enable common winches from major manufacturers to be attached to the TDAVIT column. Please contact us or your local reseller for more information.

How to specify a T Davit?

1. Select a beam option from the table based on the radius you require. Each TDAVIT has two radius options A or B which is determined by the beam position (see the dimensional drawing above).
2. Be aware that larger radius beams reduce the working load limit of the TDAVIT.
3. Select your column option from the dimensional table based on the height of lift you require. Column option 1 is our shortest standard column and option 5 is our tallest.Should you need a greater height of lift, you can add a pedestal or socket extension, subject to restrictions.
