TransWorld Manufacturing Offers New Spreader Bars, End Caps

July 27, 2016 – TransWorld Manufacturing has released two new spreader bar end cap sizes and a new telescoping spreader bar model. These new products offer a wider range of lifting options and rigging configurations for the crane industry.


TransWorld's spreader bar end caps are engineered to work with two different sizes of readily available steel pipe. The new additions to the product line, the SBC2/3 and SBC4/5, work with 2-in. to 16-in. pipe. SBC2/3 uses 2-in. and 3-in. pipe to lift a maximum of 26 tons and up to a 19-ft. span. SBC4/5 uses 4-in. or 5-in. standard pipe up to a 30-ft. span, with up to a 66-ton working load limit. Each new set of caps can be purchased with center cap couplers to use different lengths of the same specified pipe. This enables the crane owner to pin together caps and pipe in a multitude of variations to assist with diverse project challenges.

 

TransWorld Manufacturing also has developed a new standard size of telescoping spreader bar. The TS12-8.5 is designed to be the go-to spreader bar for boom trucks. It telescopes from 5 to 8.5 feet with a working load limit of 12 tons. At only 75 lbs., this is an ultra light rigging tool that any crane technician can easily handle and have in their rigging tool box for a quick pick.

 

"We are thrilled to provide end caps and our best-selling telescoping bars to a wider range of end-users. Every aspect of these products are designed with the crane operator in mind and they will be safe and efficient tools for years to come” says Crystal Dieleman, president of TransWorld Manufacturing Company.

 

All three spreader bars are designed, engineered and manufactured by TransWorld Manufacturing Company and are now available for purchase.
