Features & Benefits
Features That Make the Difference
Maximum Pointer Memory
Captures and holds the peak load applied, allowing operators to confirm maximum tension after lifting, critical in complex rigging where real-time dial monitoring is not always possible.
Generous Shackle Openings
Heavy-duty, nickel-plated shackles provide secure, corrosion-resistant connections and fit oversized rigging gear common in 20,000 lb operations.
Zero Control Function
Allows zero adjustment up to 20% of capacity (4,000 lb) to offset rigging weight or establish an accurate baseline.
Wide Temperature Range
Performs accurately from –50°F to +140°F, ensuring reliability from cold-weather environments to desert heat.
