For loads too long or too heavy for one hoist, the Machining & Welding 20000 LB 8 FT Twin Hoist Lift Beam spans 8 feet and carries a 20,000 pound working load limit across two lift points.

Two hoist trolleys ride along the top of the beam while the load hangs from swivel latch hooks below, letting operators fine-tune balance by adjusting each hoist independently.

Heavy gauge steel construction keeps deflection low across the full span, which matters when two independently operated hoists are sharing one load.

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.

This type of lifting equipment is common in facilities that move machinery, structural steel, crates, or bulky components as part of daily operations. Rather than treating each lift as a one-off problem, a dedicated piece of equipment turns it into a routine, repeatable task that any trained operator can complete quickly and safely.

Before putting any lifting equipment into service, verify it matches your hoist or crane setup and confirm the rated capacity covers your heaviest expected load with margin to spare. Routine inspection of welds, pins, and connection hardware helps catch wear before it becomes a safety issue. Keep a simple inspection log if your facility does not already have one, since tracking wear over time makes it easier to plan replacement before a part actually fails in use.

Well-built rigging hardware holds its rated capacity through years of regular use, provided it is inspected and stored properly between jobs. A dry, organized storage area away from corrosive chemicals or extreme temperature swings goes a long way toward extending the service life of steel components.

The specifications below cover everything you need to check compatibility with your equipment.

The Machining & Welding 20000 LB 8 FT Twin Hoist Lift Beam is built for the long, awkward loads that a single center hook was never meant to handle.
