  • Low profile design (approx. 110mm height) for easy insertion
  • Technical Data

  • What is a Load Moving Skate

The CTB Series Heavy Duty Skates pack exceptional load-bearing capacity into a compact steel body. Featuring multiple rollers (up to 16 on the 20T model) and a robust welded frame, they are the ideal solution for moving transformers, generators, and heavy industrial machinery in straight-line applications.

📦 High Load Density

Compact steel body packed with multiple rollers provides exceptional load capacity in a small footprint. Available in sizes from 6 Tonnes up to 20 Tonnes.

💪 Robust Construction

Fully welded steel frame with a durable powder-coated finish ensures maximum resistance to impact and wear in harsh industrial environments.

⚙️ Smooth Movement

Fitted with high-quality bearings and rollers (PU for floor protection or Steel for durability) to ensure low rolling resistance even under maximum load.

⚖️ Steerable Skate (With Turntable)

The top plate sits on a bearing and rotates 360 degrees. This allows the wheel body to turn left or right while the load remains stationary on top.

Load Moving Skate (Machinery Mover)

Heavy Duty Equipment Skates for Horizontal Load Moving
High Load Capacity Equipment Relocation Swivel & Fixed Options Industrial Grade

Product Overview

Load moving skates, also known as machinery skates or equipment skates, are specialized tools designed for moving heavy loads horizontally. These skates are particularly useful in industrial and commercial settings where the relocation of heavy machinery or equipment is required.

They effectively reduce the need for cranes or forklifts in confined spaces and are typically used in conjunction with other lifting equipment, such as hydraulic jacks (toe jacks), to facilitate the loading process.

Common Applications:

  • Relocating heavy machinery inside factories, warehouses, or plants.
  • Equipment installation, maintenance, or plant reconfiguration.
  • Moving transformers, presses, and large industrial components.

Key Design Features

Robust Construction

The platform is constructed of sturdy steel to withstand heavy loads. The low-profile design ensures stability while maximizing overhead clearance.

Wheel Configuration

Wheels vary in number and arrangement (e.g., square pattern or multi-row) to increase stability. Made from Nylon (for floor protection) or Steel (for durability).

Maneuverability

Many models feature swivel casters or a turntable top, allowing for easy turning and positioning in tight spaces.

Ease of Use

Some skates include a handle or pulling bar for manual push/pull operation. Adjustable models allow users to change connecting bar spacing for different load sizes.

Common Types of Load Moving Skates

Type Movement Typical Application
Fixed Skates
(Straight-Running)
Moves in a straight line only. Used under the rear of the load for stability.
Steerable Skates
(Swivel)
Rotating top plate allows turning. Used at the front of the load for steering control.
Adjustable Skates Connecting bars adjust width. Accommodating loads of varying widths and sizes.
Powered Skates Motor-driven (Electric/Pneumatic). Precise movement of extremely heavy loads without manual pushing.

Safety & Maintenance Guide

To ensure safe operation and longevity of the equipment, follow these guidelines:

  • Load Capacity: Always select a skate with a capacity exceeding the weight of the load. Capacities range from a few hundred kilograms to several tons.
  • Floor Condition: Ensure the surface is flat and clean. Small debris can stop a skate wheel and cause the load to shift.
  • Safety Features: Utilize skates with attachment points, non-slip rubber surfaces, or locking mechanisms/brakes to prevent unintended movement.
  • Maintenance: Regular maintenance is critical. Lubricate wheels and bearings regularly, and inspect the steel body for any signs of wear, cracks, or deformation before use.
Recommended Usage Strategy: For maximum stability, skates are often used in a 3-point sets: 1 Steerable Skate at the front (for guidance) and 2 Fixed Skates at the rear (for following). Use a hydraulic toe jack to lift the load onto the skates.
