Falcon Hook Lift Asphalt Hot Boxes provide crews with a highly flexible way of making asphalt repairs. Workers can use it as their one-stop shop by equipping everything they need to patch potholes.
Since the hook lift box sits on the back of the truck, it’s far easier to maneuver into and around tight city streets versus using a tow-behind trailer.
Another big advantage is that a hook lift allows the operator to multipurpose his truck by putting on a multitude of bodies. This makes it a swiss army knife and a much more efficient way to operate.
For example, let’s say that they need to salt the roads. The crew would first unhook the patcher and then hook up the salt spreader. A hook lift allows a single truck to accomplish the same job as two or more dedicated ones—thereby saving time and money.
