Fifteen chain hoists and blocks will also be shipped to that country.\r\n<br\/><br\/>\r\nCondra\u2019s Titan hoist range is versatile, comprising the Compact Series with capacities to 32 tons, and the SH (Short-Headroom) Series with capacities to 18 tons. All models are variants of the veteran K-Series hoists, but refined to offer a more compact profile with markedly reduced overall dimensions.\r\n<br\/><br\/>\r\nAmong the cranes included in the international orders are several equipped with high-lift K-Series hoists, in one instance to a height of 40 metres. These hoists have a proven record in high-lift applications, with Condra widely recognised as Africa\u2019s market leader in this specialised arena. The company\u2019s installed base includes hoists with controlled lifts as high as 150 metres.\r\n<div id=\"attachment_8716\" style=\"width: 990px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8716\" src=\"https:\/\/condra.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Photo-A-Condra-K-Series-hoist-1024x680.jpg\" alt=\"Hoist from Condra\u2019s K-Series\" width=\"980\" height=\"651\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8716\" srcset=\"https:\/\/condra.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Photo-A-Condra-K-Series-hoist-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/condra.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Photo-A-Condra-K-Series-hoist-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/condra.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Photo-A-Condra-K-Series-hoist-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/condra.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Photo-A-Condra-K-Series-hoist.jpg 1156w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-8716\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hoist from Condra\u2019s K-Series<\/p><\/div>\r\nA company spokesman said there had been close cooperation with the consultants to ensure that agreed prices could remain competitive without compromising the robust reliability required for harsh operating conditions.\r\n<br\/><br\/>\r\nOverall lifetime cost will remain lower than cranes offered by rival firms, said the spokesman, while inspection and testing will take place at defined stages during manufacture to ensure compliance with international quality control, safety, and lifting equipment standards.\r\n<br\/><br\/>\r\nCondra\u2019s customers placed their orders in late August. Manufacturing is underway at the company\u2019s Germiston factory, with delivery to be effected by road.
