Ingersoll Rand GT050-8-20 is a 5 metric ton (11,000 lb) capacity GT Series Hand-Geared Hook-On Trolley designed for controlled movement and positioning of suspended loads along compatible overhead beams. Its hand-geared mechanism allows the operator to move the trolley using the hand chain rather than manually pushing the suspended load. This model provides a 4.6–8 in. flange adjustment, requires an 8 in. minimum beam height, and has a 60 in. minimum curve radius. The GT Series is rated for use with both manual and powered hoists.
The GT050-8-20 uses cast iron wheels with a Universal tread for either flat or tapered beams. Sealed, Lube-for-Life ball bearings provide smoother rolling with less effort and maintenance, while cold-formed steel side plates incorporate rail sweeps and drop stops for strength and even load distribution. Rivet-locked wheel axles help prevent loosening during operation. The 20 ft hand chain drop provides the reach specified for this configuration. The trolley has a 5:1 design factor and is designed for compatible manual and powered hoists.
