For operations that require moving large dumpsters or heavy containers, a stronger hooklift system is essential. The SwapLoader SL-400 Series hooklift is designed for heavy-duty hauling applications where lifting power and durability are critical.
At HIWASTE MFG, we supply SwapLoader hooklift systems and hooklift trucks across Hawaii, including the SL-400 Series. These systems are built for larger truck platforms and are commonly used by businesses that handle heavy construction debris, large dumpsters, and demanding hauling work.
Compared to lighter hooklift systems, the SL-400 Series provides significantly greater lifting capacity, making it suitable for more demanding jobs.
Built for Heavy-Duty Truck Platforms
The SwapLoader SL-400 Series is designed for Class 8 truck chassis, typically with a GVW range of 45,000 lbs or greater.
These hooklift systems offer lifting capacities ranging from approximately 33,000 to 40,000 lbs, depending on the model.
This added lifting capability allows operators to transport larger dumpsters, containers, and equipment safely and efficiently.
Typical specifications for SL-400 series hooklifts include:
- Lift / dump capacity: up to 40,000 lbs
- Container length compatibility: approximately 12' – 22' depending on the model
- Hook height options: fixed or adjustable configurations
- Hydraulic system: designed for high-capacity lifting operations
These specifications make the SL-400 Series one of the most capable hooklift systems in the SwapLoader lineup.
Models in the SL-400 Series
The SwapLoader SL-400 Series includes several hooklift models designed for different container lengths and truck configurations.
Common models include:
- SL-330
- SL-400
- SL-406
- SL-418X
Each model is designed to match specific truck chassis lengths and container sizes, allowing businesses to configure the right system for their operation.
For example, some models in the series are designed for 14-16 foot containers, while others can handle containers up to 18-22 feet in length depending on the configuration.
Designed for Demanding Applications
Because of their higher lifting capacity, SwapLoader SL-400 Series hooklifts are commonly used for more demanding hauling applications.
Typical uses include:
- Heavy construction debris hauling
- Large hooklift dumpsters
- Industrial waste operations
- Municipal waste handling
- Equipment and material transport
For companies handling heavy loads across Hawaii’s construction and waste industries, the SL-400 Series provides the lifting strength needed for large containers and high-volume hauling.
Higher Capacity Than the SL-200 Series
Within the SwapLoader lineup, the SL-400 Series sits above the SL-200 Series in terms of lifting power.
The SL-200 Series typically handles loads around 22,000–24,000 lbs, while the SL-400 Series can lift up to 40,000 lbs, making it a better option for heavier dumpsters and larger trucks.
This added capacity makes the SL-400 Series a strong choice for companies that need a heavy-duty hooklift truck capable of handling large containers.
