ALUMINUM T-FRAME - AIR/PNEUMATIC TIRE GANTRY CRANES
1,000 & 2,000 LB. CAPACITY AC "AIR CASTER" GANTRY

Air caster (AC model) gantry was inspired by the
HVAC industries needs. The eight/ten (depending
upon model) pneumatic swivel casters makes it ideal
for moving loads over rooftops. Applications include
air handlers, compressors, electrical motors etc. The
lightweight aluminum construction makes it simple to
break down for easy handling.
Along the way we learned a few things, such as adding
the use of diagonal braces to all of our air caster model
gantries. The use of air caster on uneven terrain and
softer ground surfaces will sometimes greatly increase
the force required to push/pull the gantry crane. Utilizing
these braces adds superior strength to the columns and
legs, so you can be rest assured of this gantries structural
integrity. The few extra minutes that it takes to install the
braces, we think is well worth benefits.
These braces attach to the receiver tubes as well as the
I-beam, with the use of push pins and I beam clamps.
This allows you to position your leg widths to fit your
individual needs. All of our portable gantry cranes use
lanyards to attach our hitch and push pins, so misplacing
parts is not a concern.
Above is a 2TAC1212, Its our little work horse portable
gantry crane. It is rated at 2,000 lb Capacity with 12'
length I Beam and 12' under beam max height. Although
it is only 2 positions up from the lowest position in the
photo. There are a total of 10 air tire casters (see below)
with a 10.5" Dia on a 68" long frame. Each caster is
rated at 480 pounds each.

• 1,000 lb. cap. 4 single casters per base 480 lb cap per tire
   (Span between wheels = Overall span minus 11 1/2")

   wheels = Overall span minus 21")
• Custom size I-beam lengths
• Custom heights/ hole spacing’s upon request

Note: Before using gantry on any rooftops, always check with the buildings architect or engineer for roof load
capabilities. Additional shoring may be required. Roof must be capable of supporting the load plus gantry, rigging
and personnel. We cannot and will not be responsible for any roof damages. If an outside application is intended,
the gantry should never be used on or in mud, sand, loose/pea gravel or any other soft foundations. Gantry should
only be used on reasonably firm packed level ground.
