Aluminum Safety Tripods for Confined Spaces and Lifting Operations

Portable systems for access, rescue, and lifting in confined spaces

Aluminum tripods are solutions designed for work in confined spaces, industrial maintenance, and rescue or load lifting operations.

Their lightweight yet durable structure allows for quick installation, high stability, and adaptability to multiple environments where fixed systems cannot be installed.

Safety tripods: three ranges, all options covered

At Vinca, we offer three ranges of aluminum tripods (learn more about each range by downloading the catalogs): TRIPOD, TM, and TRA models.

The TRIPOD range consists of three main models: the standard tripod, the tripod with manual winch, and the tripod with electric winch. These models are designed exclusively for load handling.

The TM range includes a wide variety of models: tripods exclusively for loads, tripods designed for lifting people, and hybrid models that can be used for both purposes.

The TRA range consists of foldable aluminum tripods designed exclusively for loads, standing out for their light weight and high adaptability. With capacities ranging from 250 kg to 3,000 kg, they feature adjustable and articulated telescopic legs.
