Lorain LRT335
The Lorain LRT335 was one of the best-designed cranes of its time. Built by the Manitowoc Company through their Lorain Division, this model was released from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. Even though this rough terrain crane is no longer in production, it is still known for its high lifting capacity, versatility and outstanding off-road performance.
Finding replacement Lorain LRT335 parts should be accessible through our extensive parts catalog at Craneco Parts & Supply. We have categorized our inventory by manufacturer and crane model for easy reference.
Lorain LRT335 Features Overview
Even though the LRT335 has been retired by the Manitowoc company, that doesn’t mean you should replace yours with a new one. With a total lifting capacity of 35 tons, the LRT335 remains one of the most reliable machines, especially when working on challenging terrain.
Further, this machine features a maximum gradability of 75%, which measures a crane’s ability to maintain control and traction while at an incline or decline. In the case of the LRT335, it can continue to operate while working on a slope of 75 degrees efficiently. The operator can smoothly navigate inclines with a ¾ vertical rise or a 37-degree slope. This is one of the critical specs to consider for off-road equipment. It shows how versatile this crane is while operating on rough terrain.
Here are some more of its notable features:
BOOM
Our catalog lets you quickly find replacement Lorain LRT335 parts for the boom and other upper chassis equipment. This crane has a four-section telescoping boom with a maximum length of 105 feet. The boom is constructed using low alloy steel designed for increased strength.
The boom’s construction is more durable than carbon steel, withstanding repeated stress and heavy loads. It’s also designed for impact resistance, allowing it to withstand impacts and shocks without sustaining damage during day-to-day operations. The boom is also lighter due to the low alloy steel construction, making it easier to drive across job sites.
JIB
The Lorain LRT335 was designed with a lattice-type telescoping jib, which allows the boom to extend an extra 46 feet long. It can be easily extended and retracted using cab controls. The jib also comes with a hydraulic offset, allowing the operator to position the entire structure at various angles. Please review our catalog for various jib and other replacement Lorain LRT335 crane parts.
STEERING AND MOBILITY
The LRT335 features excellent maneuverability even on rough inclined terrain due to its four-wheel steering capability. It can move around quickly, even with limited space on the job site. The machine’s steering system allows the front and rear wheels to move and turn in opposite directions, which gives the LRT335 an extensive turning radius.
The operator can choose several steering options, including two-wheel, four-wheel and crab steering options. This feature allows the driver to drive the vehicle according to various movement requirements. You can find the necessary replacement Lorain LRT335 parts for the steering system in our catalog.
OPERATOR CAB
The operator can is positioned on the crane’s upper structure, which gives the driver an unobstructed 360 view. The cabin is air-conditioned and fully enclosed. Heating options are also available for better comfort. In addition, the operator cab is soundproofed, and the various controls are positioned intuitively.
ENGINE
The Lorain LRT335 has a powerful Cummins QSB5.9 diesel engine mounted on the crane’s upper chassis. It can deliver up to 173 hp at 2,500 rpm. Some units also had a different Cummins 6BTA5.9 carrier engine for improved transportation.
