Trolleys
Any of you guy's have any input on a trolley that attaches to an i-beam for a chain hoist? While building my new bay I installed a 6"x12" i-beam. I thought it would be nice to be able to move side to side rather than just up and down. I found one in the northern catalog and a few others online. I'm cheap but would rather spend the money and purchase a good quality, sealed bearing, maintenance free one. Any suggestions?

Trolleys are nice to have, the better the quality the better it will move for you with a heavy load on it. Make sure you buy one that will meet or exceed the load rating of the chain hoist you will be using.

I bought one From Grainger rated at 6000lbs for a 4" wide beam. Anything I use for lifting I buy top of the line from a big name store. Seen to many cheap lifting fixture fail and seen to many people hurt.

ive worked in shop with one and they are well worth the money i think the guy paid like 900 dollars ???? maybe i know that it was expensive but it will most definetly save on doctor bills and such bills from heavy lifting
