Every machinery moving project is different. Some applications demand maximum lifting capacity, while others place a greater emphasis on maneuverability, footprint, or operating simplicity.
That’s why Royal Rig-N-Lift offers two flagship extendable counterweight forklifts: the Royal 80/100 and the Royal 100/140.
Although both models are purpose-built for machinery movers and industrial rigging contractors, each is designed with a slightly different customer in mind.
The Royal 80/100 is an excellent choice for companies that routinely handle loads approaching 100,000 pounds while working in facilities where maneuverability and operator familiarity are important. It uses an entirely mechanical control system, providing direct, tactile feedback that many experienced operators appreciate. With lifting capacities up to 80,000 pounds with the counterweight retracted and 100,000 pounds extended, it delivers tremendous capability in a practical package.
For operations that regularly encounter even heavier machinery, the Royal 100/140 steps into another class altogether.
Rated for approximately 100,000 pounds with the counterweight retracted and up to 140,000 pounds extended, the 100/140 is one of the highest-capacity forklifts available today. It incorporates modern electronic controls, a horizontal extendable boom, dual-fuel operation, and a two-stage full-free-lift roller mast to handle some of the industry’s most demanding lifting applications.
So which model should you choose?
The answer depends less on the maximum load you’ve ever lifted and more on the loads you move every week.
If most of your projects involve machinery in the 60,000- to 90,000-pound range, the Royal 80/100 may provide the best combination of capacity, maneuverability, and operating efficiency.
If your business regularly tackles transformers, massive industrial presses, generators, or oversized equipment exceeding that range, the additional capacity of the Royal 100/140 can provide valuable flexibility for future projects.
At Royal Rig-N-Lift, our goal isn’t simply to sell a forklift. It’s to understand your application and recommend the machine that delivers the greatest long-term value for your operation.
If you’d like to compare the Royal 80/100 and Royal 100/140 in more detail, we’re happy to review your lifting requirements and help determine which model is the better fit.
