Tie Down Telescoping Brace for TranzPorter Ladder Hoist Track over 28 ft
The 60005 telescoping brace is the support Tie Down requires on any TranzPorter track assembly longer than 28 ft. It cross ties to the track rungs at the locations in the manual's track section chart and stiffens the run so the carriage tracks straight up to the 44 ft maximum.
Order it with any extra 8 ft track sections (10091) when you take a 28 ft kit to 36 ft or 44 ft. It is part of the 44 ft TranzPorter kit configurations.
