For loads too long or too heavy for one hoist, the Machining & Welding 15000 LB 16 FT Twin Hoist Lift Beam spans 16 feet and carries a 15,000 pound working load limit across two lift points.

By running two hoists on one beam, you can lift and lower each end independently, which is useful for tilting a load into position or leveling it as you go.

Swivel latch hooks reduce twisting in the chain or sling as the load is lifted, keeping the rigging aligned throughout the pick.

Coordinated twin hoist lifting is standard practice in fabrication and steel handling, and having a dedicated beam for it keeps the setup consistent every time.

Equipment like this shows up across a wide range of industries, from steel fabrication and machine shops to warehousing, construction, and vehicle service centers. Anywhere crews need to move a load overhead in a controlled, repeatable way, a purpose-built lift beam or crane keeps the job safer and faster than improvised rigging. Once a facility standardizes on the right lifting equipment for its typical loads, operators spend less time rigging and more time actually getting work done.

Rated capacity should always be treated as a hard limit, not a target, and a quick visual inspection before each lift is one of the simplest ways to keep a lifting operation safe. Make sure your operators are trained on the specific rigging setup this equipment requires, and confirm that anyone signing off on a lift understands how to read the working load limit and match it against the actual load being moved.

Rigging hardware like this sees repeated use, so look for equipment that is properly rated, clearly marked, and traceable to a manufacturer that stands behind its specifications. Keeping documentation on hand for each piece of equipment also makes routine inspections and any future certification requirements easier to manage.

Add the Machining & Welding 15000 LB 16 FT Twin Hoist Lift Beam to jobs where one hoist alone would leave the load unbalanced or out of level.
