Coil Carriers

Kress coil carriers are custom built vehicles designed specifically for steel mill coil handling duties. Steel coils can be transported and stacked in field storage areas, and can be loaded and unloaded from railcars and highway trucks by Kress coil carriers.

Kress Corporation offers two types of coil carriers. The “CL Series” is designed primarily as a transport unit configured to carry coils on a long ram within the carrier wheelbase. The “CS Series” is designed with an emphasis on field stacking capability. Both types of coil carriers are compact and high maneuverable and feature simple rugged construction and earthmover tires.

Kress coil carriers are designed for continuous operation in the harsh environment of a steel mill and are built to satisfy the operational requirements of each customer’s application. Specialized design utilizing standard components located for ease of maintenance ensures a carrier that is ideal for the job, can be easily serviced, and has a reliable, ready source of parts and service support.
