Lacing tube for American Crane CC3113

The lacing tube, identified by part number 717468, functions as a diagonal lattice reinforcement member within the lattice boom structure of the crane. These components are integrated into the boom assembly to provide necessary rigidity and support. By distributing compression and tension forces across the boom framework, these elements assist in maintaining the structural geometry of the crane boom during lifting operations.

This component is compatible with American Crane crane models including the CC3113 and the 9260. The part is manufactured by American Crane. Proper installation and alignment of these lattice members are required to ensure the boom maintains its intended load-bearing capacity and stability. Regular inspection of the boom structure is necessary to identify any deformation or damage to these support members, as they are integral to the overall integrity of the crane boom system.

In lattice boom cranes, lacing members act as the web of the truss structure. They connect the primary chord members, effectively turning the boom into a rigid truss that resists bending and buckling forces. Maintaining the condition of these tubes ensures that the boom can handle the mechanical stresses encountered during heavy lifting tasks.
