Pro-source PSGCT0.5 Ball Bearing Trolley 0.5 Ton

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE PSGCT0.5 is a wide-range ball bearing trolley rated for 0.5-ton (1,000-pound) capacity. It is designed to ride along the bottom flange of a standard I-beam and supports overhead material handling in industrial, maintenance, and rigging applications. The trolley accommodates a flange width range of 2-43/64 inches to 4-31/32 inches and fits I-beam heights from 3 inches to 15 inches. A 2-1/4-inch wheel diameter and ball bearing construction allow smooth, low-friction travel across the beam. The unit weighs 12.1 pounds and requires a minimum curve radius of 35 inches, making it suitable for both straight runs and gently curved monorail systems.

This trolley is used in light industrial shops, warehouses, fabrication facilities, and maintenance bays where a manual or chain hoist needs to travel along an overhead I-beam. The wide flange adjustment range means one trolley fits multiple beam sizes without requiring separate hardware. It is typically installed by maintenance technicians, millwrights, or rigging professionals as part of a manual hoist system. The unit is intended for indoor overhead lifting use on standard structural I-beams within its rated capacity.

Key Features

• 0.5-ton (1,000-pound) rated load capacity for light to medium overhead lifting tasks
• Wide flange adjustment range: 2-43/64 inches to 4-31/32 inches accommodates multiple beam sizes
• Ball bearing wheels for smooth, low-friction travel along the I-beam flange
• 2-1/4-inch wheel diameter suited for standard structural I-beams
• Fits I-beam heights from 3 inches to 15 inches
• 35-inch minimum curve radius supports use on curved monorail track sections

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard structural I-beams with a flange width between 2-43/64 inches and 4-31/32 inches and a beam height between 3 inches and 15 inches. Compatible with manual chain hoists and lever hoists rated at or below 0.5 tons that use a standard trolley mount attachment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified millwrights, maintenance technicians, or rigging professionals. Before mounting the trolley, verify that the supporting I-beam and its connections are rated to handle the intended load with appropriate safety factors per applicable ASME B30 standards. Adjust the trolley flange width to match the beam flange before loading, and confirm that all fasteners are fully tightened and the beam falls within the 3-inch to 15-inch height range. Never exceed the rated 0.5-ton capacity.
