Machine Skates

Machine skates, or sometimes known as tanks, elephant feet, or Hilman rollers, are used for the movement of large machines and equipment on a smooth, level surface. They can be equipped with or without turntables and handles.

• Low overall height enables easy positioning under load.
• Low friction means lower motive force.
• Simple to use.
• Ideal in confined spaces where overhead craneage cannot be used.

• What capacity do you need?
• Is the floor surface of reasonable quality?
• Do you need turntables or packers?
• Do you require a jack to raise the load?
• Do you require a griphoist or a winch to move the load?
• Will any slings or shackles be needed?
• Will any other equipment be required to ease or speed up the job?
