Side-Grip Elevators
Our Side Grip Elevator raises the bar in vertical transport. This device offers an effective means of elevating or lowering a variety of containers and products when space is at a premium. The product is gently, but firmly, gripped by the sides and carried through the change in elevation at speeds up to 300 fpm. Side grippers are a soft, pliable material, guaranteed not to damage your container.
