OZ Lifting Shows New Tele-Pro Davit Crane at ProMat

OZ Lifting Products LLC will show its upgraded Tele-Pro davit crane — and other industrial lifting products — at ProMat, which takes place March 17-20 at Chicago’s McCormick Place. See OZ Lifting at Booth S309.

The Winona, Minnesota-based manufacturer is known for a wide range of davit cranes, but the relaunched Tele-Pro, available in 500 lb., 1,200 lb. and 2,500 lb. capacities, allows users to telescope the boom in and out under load. All lifting specifications, hook reach, and lifting heights remain the same — but several improvements have been made, which will be seen for the first time by ProMat attendees.

The U.S. Patented Tele-Pro now features smoother boom operation under load; enhanced maneuverability; clearer capacity limits; industrial, high-visibility powder coat; and simplified maintenance. These five features will be showcased during on-site demonstrations.

Inspired by cutting-edge technology and advanced testing, OZ Lifting engineers have developed a smoother, more consistent telescoping experience, even under load. This improvement allows operators to handle loads with reduced resistance and strain, streamlining tasks and enhancing safety on the job. A handle has also been added to the crane, allowing for more accurate load rotation and control with a full 360 degrees of maneuverability.

A high-visibility yellow powder coat finish now replaces the previous zinc-plated coating, boosting both durability and corrosion resistance. Additionally, new dual rating decals displaying both imperial and metric load capacities at various boom angles ensure that operators can quickly verify load limits in real time. The addition of top and bottom grease zerk fittings simplifies the lubrication process, extending the crane’s lifespan and enhancing overall performance without adding operational downtime.

Also making ProMat debuts will be a wheel base that can be used with the full range of davit cranes up to 1,200 lbs. capacity; and wireless adapters for electric chain hoists and builder’s (wire rope) hoists. The manufacturer offers the electric chain hoist in 500 lbs, 1,000 lbs., 2,000 lbs., and 4,000 lbs. capacities; and the builder’s hoist in 500 lbs. and 1,000 lbs. capacities. Wireless adapters are available for all models, apart from the lightest electric chain hoist. There is also room on the booth for a full range of lever and chain hoists, including stainless-steel and spark-resistant models.

Prior to ProMat, OZ Lifting will celebrate 20 years in business and is preparing to relocate into a state-of-the-art 40,000 square-foot facility. A new website is also going live soon.
