AMH 1 Ton Geared Trolley

AMH GT Geared Trolleys – Precise Load Positioning with Chain Drive Control

The AMH GT Series Geared Trolleys offer smooth, controlled movement of loads along an overhead beam using a hand chain drive. Designed for both industrial and theatrical applications, these trolleys are available in capacities from ½ to 30 metric tons. Each model features cast iron wheels with a universal tread for flat or tapered flanges, sealed bearings for long-lasting performance, and a low headroom profile to maximize vertical lift. The standard hand chain drop is 20 feet, with optional extensions available.
