Hydraulic Lift Safety Device

The GraVloc hydraulic tilt switch is designed to prevent forklifts, cherry pickers and other off-highway hydraulic lift equipment from tipping over on static lifts. The GraVloc tilt switch shuts off the equipment's lifting mechanism when a dangerous load tilt occurs, removing the decision from the operator. The switch disables the lifting ability while allowing the operator to safely put the load to rest. The GraVloc tilt switch only will allow the equipment to lift loads within spec for that piece of equipment. The tamper-proof, self-lubricating, low-maintenance tilt switch does not require a power source. GravLoc USA
