Portable Davit Arms

Davit arms for lifting are very similar to a jib crane, though limited in reach and capacity; they are made to order, though some of the more commonly ordered size davit arms may be available ex-stock.

Our davit arms are generally portable, though they are also often permanently installed. Most lifting davits are used outdoors and therefore are usually removable for safe storage or galvanised for corrosion protection and can be used for lifting equipment (materials) and people (man riding, fall arrest and rescue from height) depending on the model or type.

As with our swing jib cranes, our lifting davit arms rotate up to 360 degrees, depending on our customers’ needs.
