A straddle hoist is a particular kind of gantry crane or mobile crane. This hoist is on four rubber tired wheels. A straddle hoist from Lake City Industries has a hydraulic powered sling system, which can be used to lift such heavy loads as pipes, lumber, steel, and other industrial materials. This type of lift is also often used to move or transport boats at small and large marinas. They are also used in automotive applications to remove motors from vehicles during maintenance and repair.

There are many different sizes of Kleeco straddle hoist available from Lake City Industries. The smallest size that we offer is available in 6 ton capacity or 10 ton capacity. It is suitable for lifting small boats, automobile engines, and other smaller industrial goods. These straddle hoists can lift many things that a forklift cannot.
