Rapidly gaining in popularity within the construction industry, the Jellifish is an extremely efficient universal crash barrel lifting device created by John Ellis to be simple to use, safe, and offer reliable performance over time. Perfected over years of careful development, this patented tool is highly advantageous as right now it is the sole lifting tool designed expressly to handle most brands and kinds of crash barrels used on job sites today. There is truly no better traffic barrel tool in Los Angeles, California available on the market.
TrafFix Devices, PSS, and other companies that produce crash barrels have lifting attachments designed to work for their particular brands. Unfortunately, what this means is that attempting to raise a Big Sandy® or CrashGard® impact attenuator with a lifting tool not from the traffic barrel’s manufacturer will likely prove problematic. The lift may not secure the sand barrel at all, or the barrel may come loose part way through the process leading to a deluge of sand or even bodily harm to those nearby.
The purpose of our Los Angeles traffic barrel tool at Ellis Equipment is to solve this tricky compatibility problem, and enable employees to lift crash barrels easily and securely no matter what manufacturer they come from. An incredibly strong device, the Jellifish is rated to raise up to 2,500 lbs. To help ensure quality and performance, each unit is 3rd party tested at a lifting weight of 3,125 lbs. After successfully passing the test, the unit is tagged to note its official approval for use out in the field.
Los Angeles Impact Attenuator Lifting Device
The Jellifish was also specifically designed to have a fairly effortless operating procedure. Despite the fact that it can lift heavy traffic safety barrels, the unit itself is just 60 lbs. This enables workers to transport it with ease within its storage bag, and connect it to the machine hook while remaining inside. Once the bag is set aside and the Jellifish is completely clear, machine operators can position it over the center of the sand barrel. At that point, the worker on the ground can attach the tail part of the chain to the grab hook, which secures the Los Angeles impact attenuator lifting device to the barrel needing to be raised up.
As soon as it is no longer required for the day’s work, workers can lower the Jellifish back into the provided storage bag and disconnect it from the machine. There really isn’t anything else to it. Simplicity and effectiveness is the incredible value proposition that the Jellifish offers.
