Aldon 4020-06 Gatemaster II Railcar Gate Opener - Each

Our Gatemaster openers are compact, simple-to-use manual tools for hard-to-open gates.

• Through planetary gear reduction in the Gatemaster head, the worker's handle effort is multiplied 18-1/2 times for Gatemaster I, a considerable mechanical advantage.
• Maximum torque output of 3,200 lb.-ft. (enough to open almost all gates) can be achieved by only 173 lbs. of handle effort. The same action on a Six-foot pry bar would only produce about 1,000 lb.-ft. of torque.
• Gatemaster II includes a torque multiplier, reducing the input effort to only 35 lbs.
• There is no loss of effort when using the Gatemaster. The output torque is sustained until the gate opens or the operator releases the torque.
