ALR GT Geared Travel Beam Trolley

ALR Geared Beam Trolley - GT Series

The ALR Geared Trolley is designed to provide controlled and precise horizontal movement of lifting equipment along overhead beams and runway systems. Operated using a hand chain drive mechanism, the trolley allows loads to be accurately positioned with minimal effort, making it particularly suitable for applications where precise load placement is required or where the beam trolley is operated from ground level.

Compatible with manual and powered hoists, the ALR Geared Trolley features an adjustable beam width to accommodate a wide range of beam flange sizes. Its twin-bar suspension design provides increased stability, while precision-machined wheels running on sealed ball bearings ensure smooth travel and reliable long-term performance. Additional safety features include an anti-tilt design to help prevent accidental disengagement from the beam and rubber end stops to minimise impact damage during travel.
