The Power Slide In Action
With a load capacity up to 500 tons, the ER PS500 Power Slide is ideal for transferring heavy machinery from a trailer or rail car onto foundations or an SPMT. It can be used on a fully supported surface or supported on load stools to span gaps. Its rugged construction is built to withstand daily use and extreme loads such as turbines, generators, transformers, vessels or motors.
The Power Slide System is comprised of skid shoes powered by hydraulic push-pull cylinders over modular high-strength track sections. Low friction is maintained using graphite paint creating a consistent sliding surface between heavy track sections and the slide shoes. Our system includes 120’ of slide track, four slide shoes with load pins, two push cylinders, two safety load stops and connecting links with pins and is powered by a Split-Flow Pump for quick and accurate load positioning.
Engineered Rigging rents and sells the ER Power Slide. Unsure if you need a 200-ton, 400-ton or 500-ton skidding system? Ask our heavy lifting experts!
