Need to Replace Your Lifting Straps?
Crane operators need to ensure their lifting equipment such as the wire rope, slings, rigging, and hook is safe to use. A competent person needs to check the equipment on a daily and monthly basis and ensure that it is free of kinks, bird caging, or excessive broken wires (documentation of the monthly inspection is required). The hooks must be equipped with a working latch and the ID tags on the hook and straps must be legible. If lifting straps are damaged in any way, they must be taken out of service.
Runnion Equipment stocks 2" single-ply straps ranging from 4' up to 40' and Endless Slings – 18", 36", and 72".
Custom Sizes are available as well. Learn more at https://www.runnionequipment.com/parts/parts-department

Founded by Earle and Dorothy Runnion in 1975, Runnion Equipment Company sells, services and rents new and used truck mounted cranes, equipment trailers and bucket trucks in Northern Illinois, Northwest Indiana and Southeast Wisconsin. We maintain a strong nationwide presence by routinely buying and selling equipment across North America and from time-to-time, overseas.

Our primary product is the truck mounted crane with an emphasis on the National Crane product line. National Crane is the number one manufacturer of truck mounted cranes, or “boom trucks” in the United States . Earle Runnion began selling National Cranes in 1963 when National was just getting started and it was the beginning of a long standing, mutually beneficial relationship. Since those early days, Runnion Equipment Company has continued to be a regular on the list of National's named “TOP 10” dealers under the direction of Earle's son Patrick.

We represent Palfinger and Manitex cranes as well as Palfinger-Epsilon Loaders and Dur-A-Lift bucket trucks. We are a traditional dealer offering crane repair and rebuilding, boom tear downs, railroad Hy-Rail gear repar, OSHA inspections, safety instruction and equipment rental. We offer daily, weekly and monthly rentals as well as rentals with option to buy. Our union technicians are factory trained and CDL licensed.
