HOOKED ON HIGH PRESSURE: Why the hook hoist industry is moving away from low-pressure, 3,000-3,500-psi hydraulics.

Instead of using 3,000-3,500-psi hydraulic pumps like all others, Ampliroll employed high-pressure (i.e., 5,000 psi) pumps. The new engineering caused a mild uproar—the likes of which continue today! Revolutionary hook loader technology? Not really. Ampliroll’s 5,000-psi pumps for roll-offs were new […]
