Whiting Single-Truck Turntables
Whiting Single-Truck Turntables utilize a center mounted rotek-type bearing for their reliability and ease of use.
Whiting turntables are extremely rugged, well-balanced, and are suitable for the heavy demands of transit and freight maintenance shops.
Using the telescopic handle, the manual turntable is easy to rotate, and with the rails aligned, the handle locks into place and collapses out of sight.
Single-truck turntables are able to rotate the truck in 90 degree increments making it critical for moving trucks between the car service track and truck repair hoists in modern maintenance shops.
Whiting can custom-engineer a manual or motorized turntable in any configuration, size or capacity to suit your exact specifications.
With minimal routine maintenance needed, Whiting turntables are known for their long term reliability and safety in maintenance shops across North America.

Whiting Truck Repair Hoists
Whiting’s truck repair hoists range in size from 9-22 Tons, and are an integral part of the car hoist maintenance system in many modern transit and freight maintenance shops.

Using a rugged and proven electro-mechanical steel-alloy screw and bronze-alloy nut design, the two-screw Truck Repair hoists offers self-locking nuts along with steel safety nuts as backup for added failsafe protection.
Added features like over travel limit switches help make the Truck Repair Hoists one of the safest pieces of equipment in your maintenance shop.
With minimal needed routine maintenance, Whiting Truck Repair Hoists are known for their long-term reliability, open design for easy truck servicing and safety in maintenance shops across North America.
