Crane Equalizer Sheave

1.High Strength Design – Crane equalizer sheaves are made from forged or alloy steel, offering excellent load distribution and fatigue resistance.

2.Extended Rope Life – Precision-machined grooves reduce wear on wire ropes and improve alignment during lifting.

3.Versatile Application – Suitable for overhead cranes, gantry cranes, and hoist systems, with options for single and double sheaves.

Crane equalizer sheaves ensure balanced lifting, reduce rope wear, and improve overall crane efficiency, making them vital for safe and heavy-duty operations.

Product Features and Applications

Features:

  • The crane equalizer sheave is forged for superior strength and consistent performance.
  • Precision grooves reduce rope misalignment and extend wire rope lifespan.
  • Optional designs include single, double, or auxiliary sheaves depending on crane capacity.

Applications:

Crane equalizer sheaves are essential in overhead crane systems, gantry cranes, and hoists. They are often used as crane auxiliary sheaves in lifting mechanisms to balance tension across multiple ropes—compensating for rope elongation or wear differences to prevent load tilting. In industries such as ports, shipyards, and mining, these sheaves ensure smoother, safer heavy-duty lifting by maintaining uniform rope stress. When integrated into double sheave pulley setups, they further enhance operational stability and efficiency, making them a critical component for multi-rope lifting systems.

Product Details

Each crane equalizer sheave is manufactured using high-quality alloy steel or ductile iron for strength and durability. The sheave body undergoes quenching to achieve hardness between HRC45–50, ensuring wear resistance and reliable rope guidance.

The grooves are precisely CNC-machined to match wire rope standards, providing uniform contact and preventing slippage. Bearings are installed inside the equalizer sheave to ensure smooth, low-friction rotation under high loads. Protective coatings, such as anti-rust paint or thermal spray zinc, are applied to resist harsh environments.

Before leaving the factory, every crane equalizer sheave is tested for load capacity, surface accuracy, and safety performance. Both standard and customized sizes are available to meet different crane applications, ensuring compatibility with overhead crane sheave assemblies and auxiliary lifting systems.
