Universal Engine Hoisting

The HG family standardizes engine lifting around a basic I-beam with a hand-wheel–adjustable suspension and engine-specific adapter kits. Variants scale from narrow-body applications to wide-body coverage, including heavy-lift options up to 9 t. Screw extensions and extended dimensions support nacelle and pylon clearances. Documentation, test certificates, and organized storage boxes streamline setup, inspection, and fleet logistics.

Keyfeatures

Modular Adapter Ecosystem – One beam accepts front and rear adapters to match multiple engine types and mounts.

Adjustable Suspension Unit – Hand-wheel adjustment aligns the lift point for controlled, balanced hoists.

Scalable Capacity – HG Family spans from standard lifts to heavy-lift variants rated up to 9 t.

Ready-to-Deploy Kits – Manuals, test certificates, and storage boxes keep adapters organized and audit-ready.

Corrosion-Resistant Hardware – Galvanized or nitrided components and Skydrol-resistant finishes support long service life.

Highlights

One sling family unifies certified engine lifts across narrow- and wide-body fleets with adapter-based coverage.

Configuration Options

Safety & Operation

Use engine-specific adapter kits per model and follow the supplied operation and maintenance manuals.

Test certificates validate performance within the specified nominal and test loads for each variant.

Front and rear adapters secure the engine to the beam before lifting operations commence.

Original engine bolts are not included and must be provided as required by procedure.

Installation-unit variants include chain hoists and slings for defined on-aircraft tasks.

Mobility & Transport

Stable transport or wooden storage boxes house the beam, adapters, and hardware for organized moves.

Beams ship without adapters to reduce handling mass during transport and staging.

Extended height and screw-extension options accommodate nacelle and pylon clearances in tight bays.

Durability & Corrosion Protection

Galvanized or nitrided moving parts resist wear and corrosion across repeated cycles.

Skydrol-resistant paint finishes maintain integrity in hydraulic-fluid environments.

Welded tubular substructures on designated variants provide robust strength for repeated lifts.

Why RH Aero?

Modular Hoisting—Certified Control

HG slings deliver a common lifting architecture that scales by adapters, not new hardware, reducing inventory and training. Supplied documentation, test certificates, and EC conformity support compliance and audits. Corrosion-resistant finishes and organized storage improve readiness, enabling faster, safer lifts from shop to flight line.
