Features
Safety of operators is a top priority at Hydra-Slide, which is why climbing jacks should only be paired with 10,000 psi power units that have load holding capabilities, such as our Hydra-Pac Synchronous Power Units. These units incorporate a load holding valve, which allow for smooth and controlled movement of heavy loads and insures the safety of your team.
If the pressure in the system drops suddenly, the holding valve will close to prevent fluid from escaping, resulting in the load remaining stationary. These units also ensure equal weight distribution among all jacks in the system to maximize not only their capacity, but also their versatility.
Climbing jacks can be used on small- and large-scale jobs- Hydra-Slide offers climbing jacks in capacities ranging from 55 tons to 200 tons. And by combining multiple climbing jacks in a system, operators can significantly increase their lifting capacity. For instance, when properly configured with equal load distribution, a system of four CJ100 jacks can lift up to 400 tons.
Conclusion
Hydra-Slide’s climbing jacks are an ideal solution for safely and efficiently lifting and lowering heavy loads. Their precise control, safety features, and scalable capacity make them indispensable for a wide range of applications, from small-scale projects to large industrial operations.
