12ft Freestanding and I-Beam Jib Cranes

A freestanding jib crane is a self-supporting unit bolted to a concrete foundation, offering 360-degree rotation. An I-beam, or wall-mounted crane, attaches to a building's structural support, providing localized lifting with a typical rotation of 180-200 degrees. The choice depends on your facility layout and rotation needs.

Our Ultralite Freestanding Jib Cranes are foundationless, designed for installation on standard 6-inch reinforced concrete floors. This significantly reduces installation time and cost compared to traditional jibs that require a large, specially poured concrete foundation, making them ideal for facilities with space or installation constraints.

We pride ourselves on fast fulfillment for our customers. For our in-stock jib crane units, we offer a standard shipping lead time of just 10 days. This helps you minimize downtime and get your new lifting equipment operational as quickly as possible. For custom configurations, please consult with our specialists.

Our standard jib cranes are engineered for indoor use in industrial and manufacturing environments. However, special weather-resistant finishes and materials can be used for outdoor or harsh environment applications. Please contact our specialists to discuss your specific operational environment, and we can configure a crane to meet those needs.

Our jib cranes come equipped with variable speed controls for the hoist and trolley, allowing for precise and safe handling of materials. This level of control is crucial for delicate positioning tasks and helps prevent load swing, which enhances operator safety and protects the materials being lifted from damage.

These cranes are highly versatile and used across many sectors. They are most common in industrial manufacturing for loading machinery, in warehouses for material handling at workstations, and in assembly lines where localized lifting is needed without requiring a full overhead bridge crane system.
