SHARE

A Top Choice for Lightweight Material Handling, Inventory and Storage. The FreightLite is a proven winner. It’s made to smoothly and economically move lightweight loads weighing up to 3,000 lbs. from one level to another – typically to and from a mezzanine. Direct acting cylinders support the lift carriage and load for a consistently steady travel. The FreightLite is one of the best values in the industry. There is no pre-installation required and set-up is quick and easy.

Durability and Quality

High capacity needle bearing rollers produce smooth, reliable carriage movement.
High impact rubber carriage stops absorb the shock and noise of the carriage as it stops at the upper landing.
All hydraulic lifting rams naturally self-align to minimize side loading and wear on the bearings and seals.
Lifting ram stabilizer arms eliminate ram deflection and side loading of the ram seals, extending the life of the rams and seals.
Minimum ¼ inch thick steel reinforced platform minimizes deck deflection, maximizes load stability, and extends life of the platform deck.
Structural steel guide beams ensure consistent, reliable tracking of carriage rollers and extends the life of the beams
Chrome plating improves durability of the rods and extends the life of the cylinders and the seals.

Maintenance and Warranty

Maintenance-free carriage rollers require no lubrication.
One-piece, structural steel maintenance device safely supports the lift carriage during inspection and routine maintenance.
Sturdy, semi-transparent polyurethane oil reservoir provides an easily visible method of checking fluid levels and eliminates oil contamination due to rust.
Double wire braided Parker hydraulic hoses resist wear, abrasion, and leaks
Autoquip offers a 1-year warranty on all parts and a 5-year warranty on lift structure as a promise that you’ve purchased the industry’s most reliable VRC.

Simplicity

Each hydraulic VRC ships fully assembled, including chains and cables.
Upper landing carriage stops are easily adjustable over a 3-inch stopping distance.
Freightlite carriage requires no overhead structure and enables an unlimited load height.
Cantilevered design permits 3-way carriage loading.

Safety

Automatic re-pressurization of the hydraulic system keeps the carriage level with the upper landing, which is critical when the lift is idle for long periods of time.
Physical stops at the upper landing prevent the carriage from moving during loading and unloading of the lift.
Standard-issue shaft way barrier bar system improves personnel safety when carriage leaves the upper landing.
Interlocked landing gates automatically lock once the vertical lift carriage leaves a landing and cannot be opened until the lift carriage returns to that landing.
Gate status switches prevent lift operation while any gate is open.
Hydraulic velocity fuses completely stop lifts in the unlikely event of uncontrolled descent due to sudden hose rupture.
Minimum 3:1 structural factor of safety makes these lifts the most structurally sound in the industry.
