Top 100: Transports with Crawlers on

Sept. 28, 2010

Link-Belt's 218 HYLAB HSL is a 110-ton lattice boom crawler crane that can move in most states without removing the crawlers. As the first crane design from the new Hitachi-Sumitomo-Link-Belt alliance, new features of the 218 HSL include its rated capacity limiter, winch package with wet brake design, seven-piece counterweight design with removal system, a 266-hp Mitsubishi 6D24-TLAZL engine, and third and fourth drum options. Lift capacity has increased, and overall assembly/disassembly are faster using Link-Belt's Quick Draw system.
