Penny Hydraulics offers Tyre Lift

While handling and lifting in depots often focuses on the basic tyre changing operations, Penny Hydraulics has introduced a product designed to promote the safer, more efficient handling of tyres, wheels and associated equipment throughout the depot. The Penny Hydraulics Tyre Lift is a versatile platform lift for handling tyres, wheels and other loads weighing up to 500kg between ground level and a first floor or mezzanine store.

Many busy tyre depots and workshops install one of these compact units to provide access to new mezzanines which they can then use for storing items and thereby free up space at ground level for more productive tasks. The Tyre Lift aims to improve flexibility over continuous belt type products because it can handle all sorts of items in addition to tyres and wheels.

It is available in a range of configurations and can handle multiple agricultural, truck, car and van tyres as well as batteries, body panels and other stock items at heights to 4.0m and above. The entire handling process can be undertaken by a single person without any manual lifting. Bespoke versions are also available to meet customers’ specific requirements. The Tyre Lift has galvanised steel components for greater robustness, and can be installed indoors or outdoors for reliable and productive use.
