Hoisting Solutions for Elevator Installations
Wurtec offers its Hydraulic Piston Clamp and Low- Clearance Piston Clamp hoisting solutions for elevator installations. The Hydraulic Piston Clamp is part of Wurtec’s newly redesigned line of piston clamps. With a rated capacity of 1800 lb, this clamp is designed to handle the most demanding jobs. It supports piston diameters from 4 in. to 10 in., offering compatibility across a wide range of installations.
Key features include:
- Removable positioning handles: locking lynchpins for easy handle removal; handles for piston positioning ONLY
- Adjustable and compact: includes torque socket for acme nuts; compact, durable and easy to adjust

Its innovative design allows mechanics to easily hoist and precisely position the piston, making the threading process smooth and efficient. With a low-clearance profile, the clamp can be installed in tight spaces, fitting pistons as close as 2 in. from a nearby wall. This versatility makes it ideal for installations with restricted space. Key features include:
Accommodates cylinders ranging from 2.25 in. to 6 in. in diameter
- Lifting capacity of up to 450 lb
- Especially engineered for safe, stable lifting directly from the clamping body
- Includes custom socket designed to fit over threaded rods to tighten ACME nuts quickly and securely
These heavy-duty tools are built to safely and securely hoist elevator pistons, replacing outdated, risky methods like hardwood blocks.
