Gravloc is a safety device that uses gravity and hydraulic pressure to sense platform movement from a stable to an unstable condition. When a platform starts to become unstable, Gravloc intervenes by safely cutting out the pressure, and prevents further adverse movement.

Gravloc is a pilot operated switch that can either be retrofitted to an existing platform or included in the design and manufacture of a new product.

Dimensionally Gravloc is compact, light in weight, physically strong, and comprises of 100% non hazardous recyclable parts. Gravloc represents a unique blend of ‘value’ and ‘precision’ engineering encompassing industry proven components together with patent protected technologies.

The significance of Gravloc is that it addresses a fundamental need within all areas of powered lifting, i.e. to execute a lift without endangering anything or anyone in the process.

Gravloc’s uniqueness is that it introduces to industries (globally) a break-through design that can de-risk a variety of lifting operations ranging from nominal to some of the heaviest of lifting operations.
