The Model 516 power hoist is a compact lifting solution for dump trailers, with a 24-inch body dimension and 39.25-inch hoist length for installation planning.
The Model 516 power hoist is a compact hoist option for dump-trailer lifting systems. Its catalog dimensions provide a practical starting point for checking frame space, hinge geometry and hydraulic installation requirements before an order is placed.
The Model 516 power hoist is listed in the American Power Hoists catalog with seven dimensional references, from A through G. These measurements help a trailer builder or replacement buyer compare the hoist with the available mounting area instead of selecting equipment by lifting capacity alone.
| Parameter | Catalog value |
|---|---|
| Model | 516 |
| Product category | Power hoist |
| Dimension A | 24.00 in |
| Dimension B | 28.50 in |
| Dimension C | 19.50 in |
| Dimension D | 5.00 in |
| Dimension E | 39.25 in |
| Dimension F | 16.25 in |
| Dimension G | 10.00 in |
These are catalog dimensions. The drawing should be checked against the customer's actual frame, pivot points and installation method before final approval.
A dump-trailer hoist does more than provide lifting force. It has to fit between the frame rails, work with the dump body geometry and leave enough clearance for the moving structure. The Model 516 power hoist can therefore be evaluated in three practical steps.
Start with dimensions A, B and C from the catalog drawing. Compare them with the available frame space and the position of the dump-body hinge. A dimension that looks acceptable on paper can still create interference when the body rotates, so the full movement path should be checked.
Dimensions D, F and G help the buyer review the hoist's mounting relationship with the trailer frame and supporting brackets. The correct mounting plates, pin centers and reinforcement details depend on the trailer design. They should not be guessed from the model number alone.
Dimension E is listed as 39.25 inches for the Model 516. This measurement is important when the hoist must be positioned under a limited-length dump body. It should be reviewed together with the closed position, body angle and the space required for service access.
Using the exact model number makes an OEM or replacement inquiry easier to process. It gives the supplier a clear reference point while the buyer confirms the trailer structure, mounting arrangement and operating requirements.
For a replacement request, the buyer should send the model plate or catalog reference, photographs of the existing installation, the available mounting dimensions and the trailer's lifting arrangement. If the original unit has been modified, the updated dimensions are more useful than an old model number by itself.
The Model 516 power hoist is intended for dump-trailer lifting-system discussions where a compact hoist layout and dimensional fit are important. Final suitability depends on the trailer body, load, hinge position, hydraulic circuit and structural design. The catalog dimensions do not by themselves establish a lifting-capacity rating.
To request a fitment review for the Model 516 power hoist, provide:
- Trailer type and body dimensions
- Available installation space
- Hinge and mounting-pin locations
- Existing hydraulic components, if this is a replacement
- Required lifting sequence
- Photos or a dimensioned drawing of the current installation
- Operating environment and expected duty cycle
This information allows HCIC to review the application without assuming details that are not shown in the catalog.
The Model 516 power hoist is best evaluated as part of a complete dump-trailer lifting arrangement. Its catalog dimensions—especially the 24.00-inch A dimension, 39.25-inch E dimension and 10.00-inch G dimension—give buyers a clear basis for checking installation space. For an accurate quotation, send the trailer drawing and measured mounting information to HCIC.
