A-Frame Load Arms

A-Frame loading arms by Liquip provide superb flexibility and long reach bottom loading combined with an easy to use and comfortable design.

A-Frame loading arms are commonly used for bottom loading applications but can be used in top loading/ unloading installations.

A-Frame loading arms can be parked upright, near vertical position for convenient storage and allows the arms to be used on either side of the loading island.

Features & Benefits
  • Preferred where space limitations exist in the loading rack.
  • Compact design allows A-frame arms to be mounted next to one another and can achieve arm cross-over for simultaneous compartment loading.
  • Easily stored away from vehicles and can be mounted close to another arm for multiple arm applications.
  • Allows for easy handling of the loading arm and can easily fit the standard API envelope. 
  • Easy to adjust design for elevation/tilting during loading or unloading.
  • Uses Liquip’s unique gas strut “Velvet Touch“ technology.
  • Custom designs are available to suit individual loading applications and configurations.
