The Tri-Wedge
is a heavy-duty mount that utilizes two stationary wedges and one
sliding wedge to provide mechanical lift for the mount. An adjusting
bolt moves the center wedge, back and forth between stationary wedges
to provide lift to the top wedge. Two height ranges are provided,
based on the position of a retainer within the mount. The retainer
(shaded in the drawing below) can be placed in one of two retaining
sockets. Placing the retainer in the socket nearest the adjusting
bolt head adjusts the mount through the lower height range. Positioning
the retainer in the rear socket moves the mount through the upper
height range. Weight of the mount without pads is 5 lbs. Recommended
load lifting capacity for the Tri-Wedge Mount is 8,000 lbs. The
photo on this page shows the Tri-Wedge Machinery Mount with Pads
on the top and bottom. Contact Wilrep for pad details.
