Lifting and Tailing Brackets

• Offers a major reduction in mobilization costs in the field. Cranes are not needed to mount the bracket system. The top lifting brackets weigh approximately 92 lbs. each and the tailing brackets weigh approximately 36 lbs. each. Synthetic slings are incorporated to keep the weight reduction down on the total system.
• The bracket’s design can be adjustable for most tower manufacturer models. The bracket design does not have load-bearing welds.
• The lifting brackets offer a level load in setting the tower sections. The base section is easily aligned to the concrete base bolt mounting pattern.
• The tailing bracket’s design does not damage the outside of the tower when the tower becomes 90 degrees vertical in the tilt-up process.
• The weight of the brackets offers ergonomic benefits that may decrease injuries in the field.
• The bolting process of this system only requires 450-500 ft.- pounds that can be applied by hand.
