Portal & Cantilever

More than a tripod: portal and cantilever arm

Conventional tripods lift vertically at a single point. From the same components, the Bautri system can also be set up as a portal or a cantilever arm – for loads above trailers, trenches, edges and floor openings. For Bautri Work and Bautri Rescue.

We know of no comparable tripod made from construction props that can also be used as a portal and a cantilever arm.

Tested

The Bautri system is DEKRA-tested for tensile and compressive loads of up to 3.3 t. This applies to the Bautri system itself – the standard configuration is the tripod.

Cantilever arm: component with verification

The KA101 adapter flange comes with a structural calculation and is available as a ready-made component set in the shop.

Portal: your responsibility

You choose and take responsibility for the beam, its fastening and the stability of the portal. We are happy to advise you beforehand.

Two configurations, one system

A beam projects beyond the head plate. The load hangs beside the tripod – over an edge or a floor opening.
