If you don’t have the right equipment, moving bulky items with unusual dimensions can pose a serious safety risk. A Lifting Jib is a secure and efficient solution to handling such loads in which the weight exceeds safe limits for manual handling. Lifting structural steel for buildings, moving plant and equipment and various other tasks can be done safely with a quality Jib.
A Fixed Lifting Jib is commonly used on Telehandlers, which already have an extendable boom. However, they can also be used on Ag Loaders and Skid Steers, in which the jib is purely used as a lifting device, rather than increasing reach.
Our Fixed Lifting Jibs are available in a range of capacities up to 5000kg to suit various applications and machine sizes. We also manufacture the Extendable Lifting Jib which offers excellent flexibility and is more commonly used on Wheel Loaders.
Important to note:
Consult with your Telehandler Supplier to confirm requirements to meet the Australian Standards. If you’re buying a Jib for your telehandler, ideally this is supplied in conjunction with the machinery dealer where a load chart can be provided to state the load limits. Kerfab cannot supply this.
When attaching to a loader Anti-drop or Lock Valves must be fitted to the machine once a jib is fitted. In some instances, loader management systems and lift charts may be required.
