Whiting Rail Lifting Jacks
The outstanding design and quality construction of Whiting Portable Electric Jacks provide years of dependable service with a minimum of maintenance.
All Whiting Jacks start with a welded steel base and structural steel column. Connected to this frame, the alloy steel jack screw is keyed to a worm gear supported by a large thrust bearing.
The jack screw uses precision-machined buttress threads. In this application, Buttress threads are more efficient and safer than other threads. The aluminium bronze nut travels on the screw and supports the welded steel lifting bracket.
The jacks are easy to manoeuvre, providing ability to easily perform maintenance work at any location and at any time within your facility. Specialised anvil designs allow for complete customization to ensure an exact match to your rolling stock.
From a master control station mounted to a dedicated jack, an operator can simultaneously engage a set of jacks. Each jack is additionally equipped with push button controls for individual operation.
