1960s Era Cranes

1960s Era Cranes

1960s Era Cranes

(OP)
Does anyone have old catalogs, cutsheets, etc for:

Manufacturer Model
Lypta TRAD-D
Kranco UHA-9
Kranco A1012LC
Detroit Crane MC
Detroit Crane 2T
Load Lifter 108753-1
Load Lifter 110435-5

I was provided this from a client looking to modify the existing cranes. I'm waiting on results from a field survey that measured everything using a laser scanner. The facilities drawings I have are hard to read being scanned copies of 50 year old prints, so if anyone has anything they could share that I could compare with the field survey, it would be appreciated. I have a Kranco catalog (see attached), but it doesn't contain the models listed above. The rest I haven't had luck with Google. SlideRuleEra, is this something you might have?

RE: 1960s Era Cranes

JoshH726 - The only addition info that I have is the Whiting Crane Handbook, Third Edition (1967). It is attached below (12 MB, .pdf).

The .pdf version of the Kranco catalog that you have was contributed by an ET member. I posted it on my website a few years ago:

Don't get me wrong, I am truly delighted to see that these publications get around and are useful. That's when making this info available is most rewarding. smile
