2 TON CABLE PULLER, HOIST or COME ALONG
C-2A 2 Ton Cone-A-Long
CABLE PULLER
2 Ton Come-A-Long - Cable Puller - Hoist
The Model C-2A, 2 Ton Rescue Come-A-Long™, frequently referred to as a cable puller, hoist or a hand winch is designed and constructed to meet the rigid specifications of, and approved for use by EMERGENCY SQUAD TRAINING INSTITUTE, inventors and designers of the highest quality, American Made rescue and extrication equipment.
This heavy duty pulling and lifting device is designed and specially constructed to meet the demanding requirements of extrication and rescue professionals.
The C-2A, 2 ton Rescue Come-A-Long is a hoist designed for overhead lifting and pulling with a two part line.
The cable puller is manufactured utilizing a high strength cast aluminum alloy housing with stainless steel springs, lubricated-for-life bearings, extra flexible 133 strand galvanized steel aircraft cable and 360 degree swiveling hooks constructed of drop forged steel. The steel hooks are equipped with safety latches for positive load engagement.
All C-2A Rescue Come-A-Longs are Made in America to stringent ISO 9001:2008 Standards, and ASME/ANSI Standard B-30.21.
C-2A, 2 ton Rescue Come-A-Longs are non destructively factory tested to 150% of rated working load capacity unlike our competitors who only test to 125% of rated working load capacity. The C-2A, 2 ton Rescue Come-A-Long is a heavy duty rescue hoist designed for overhead lifting and pulling to meet the demanding requirements of fire and rescue professionals. This is not to be confused with an imported or hardware store type Come-along which is not designed or rated for overhead lifting nor does it have the safety features of this professional rescue tool.
The proprietary quickly reversible handle is rapidly removable and quickly replaceable. The reversible handle switches positions in seconds so you are pulling downward when overhead lifting. The handle may be inserted into the bale from either direction, permitting easy access and operation in tight places. The handle can be easily removed to prevent tampering with the hoist or load. The handles are designed to bend at severe overload (125% to 150% of the rated capacity), stopping you from further damage to protect the user from injury and protect the hoist from damage. The bending of the handle provides the operator with a visual warning to stop immediately and reduce the load before the other components of the C-2A Rescue Come-A-Long are damaged. Each Come-A-Long is supplied with two handles to permit a rapid return to service after an overload situation.
The exclusive cable/drum anchor system utilizes a steel swagged ball shank terminal which locks the cable securely in the drum and allows full extension of the cable. The exclusive swagged ball shank terminal, eliminates the use of two set screws and the requirement to maintain 2 or 3 wraps of unusable cable on the drum required by other manufacturers. The drum design and guide system practically eliminates "birds nests" and cable crushing on the drum. Crimped malleable copper sleeves, (not aluminum), provide superior crimping of the cable strands.
With a two part line, the cable, constructed of 7x19, ¼” diameter, 133 strand, high strength galvanized steel aircraft cable provides an unequaled full 10 feet of lift or pull on a 2 ton load. With a single part line, the C-2A hoist provides 21 feet of lift or pull on a 1 ton load. This hoist provides a very short hook to hook distance of only 26½” inches, with a total weight of a 15½ pounds, to create a cable hoist with the longest pull, shortest length and lightest weight in its class.
A reversing lever is provided to permit lowering of loads one notch at a time. The unloaded cable may be stripped from the drum by operation of the “Quick Release” lever to permit more rapid positioning when attaching to the object to be pulled or lifted. To protect the operator from a sudden dropping of the load, Internal safety devices will not permit cable “free-wheeling” when a load or tension is applied to the cable.
MARINE GRADE 2 TON RESCUE COME-A-LONGS
Marine grade models were developed specifically for harsh marine environments and other corrosive conditions. Marine grade models provide the same capacity, design and features as the standard models.
The C-2A-M, Marine Grade Come-A-Longs have an anodized aluminum frame, stainless steel cables and springs along with cadmium plated steel shafts to provide corrosion protection and a long life for Come-A-Longs subject to the corrosive marine environments.
LIGHTER WEIGHT
The C-2A Rescue Come-A-Long weighs just 15 1/2 lbs while providing a full two tons of pulling capacity, longer cable pull reach, shorter hook to hook distance, lighter weight is achieved with our high strength cast aluminum alloy frame. Our open frames allow instant tool inspection. Less force application is required than competitor’s models.
The C-2A Two Ton Rescue Come-A-Long is provided with blue color coded safety latch hooks and handles to permit rapid identification of it's 2 ton capacity when using a two part line without the need for looking at the data plates. On a single line pull this hoist has a 1 ton capacity.
SAFETY LOAD HOLDING
Unmatched smooth winch operation and precise load adjustment are the result of our precision machining to 0.001" tolerances and ISO 9001:2008 Certified quality procedures. One of two interlocking pawls is always engaged to prevent load dropping.
RAPID LOWERING
The unloaded cable may be stripped from the drum by operation of the “free wheeling” lever to permit more rapid positioning of the Come-A-Long while attached to the object to be lifted or pulled. To protect the operator and the load being lifted, Internal safety devices will not permit “free wheeling” when the load or tension on the Come-A-Long is greater than 40 lbs.
CABLE GUIDE
Based on user feedback, we have updated the design of the cable guide. The new guide (part number 753) increases the durability of the part and makes it easier and quicker to replace should it be damaged.
CABLE RETURN CRANK
The reversible handle attaches directly to the drum for slack cable take up.
FULL CABLE LENGTH OPERATION
Our exclusive steel swagged ball shank cable retention system allows the operator to utilize the entire length of the cable and pull the full rated capacity of the Come-A-Long without the requirement to maintain two or three wraps of cable on the drum like other manufacturers models.
CABLE EYE
A steel cable eye protects the highly flexible 1/4" 7 x 19 aircraft cable at the hook attachment with a large hydraulically crimped copper sleeve used to secure the cable in the eye, unlike other manufacturers who use an aluminum crimp sleeve.
THREE HOOK OPTIONS
Three different drop forged steel hook options are available:
MAINTENANCE
Minimal hoist maintenance is required. The open frame construction provides instant tool inspection, lubricated for life bearings, crimped copper cable sleeves and Marine Grade models for use in corrosive environments, reduce the maintenance needs.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Our hoists were the first manufactured to be ISO 9001:2015 Quality Program Certified. Our quality assurance programs are monitored and updated on a regular basis, and they feature:
REPAIR SERVICES
Many parts of our ratchet winch hoists are replaceable. Because parts can be replaced you can save yourself the cost of purchasing a brand-new hoist and prolong the life of your hoist by replacing a worn or damaged part.
Many of the parts on the hoist are available for purchase from us and you can use them to to replace worn out or broken components in house. However if a winch hoist is damaged substantially, it may require professional repair.
We offer comprehensive repair services for all of our manual ratchet winch hoists. If your hoist becomes severely damaged you can send it back to or repair facility where we can pinpoint the problem and return the hoist to its original condition. Having your hoist repaired by Special Service and Supply professionals saves you money and prolongs the life of your hoist. Visit our Contact US page online, email us at Service @SpecialServiceAndSuply.com or call us at 970 879-5810 to inquire about our repair services.
