0.8 Ton Knuckle Boom Marine Crane

The SQ08ZA3TJ+1 is one of 14 models in our Knuckle Boom Marine Cranes range, which runs from 0.8 t to 25 t.

The SQ08ZA3TJ+1 is a 0.8 ton knuckle boom marine crane. It lifts 800 kg at 1.34 m, 450 kg at 2.25 m and 220 kg at its full 4.15 m reach, with a 1.3 t·m maximum lifting moment and 330° slewing. It weighs 220 kg.

Where the 0.8 ton SQ08ZA3TJ+1 fits

The SQ08ZA3TJ+1 sits at the small end of our knuckle boom marine range. At 220 kg, on a round Ø280 mm base plate, it suits boats where deck space and deck load are both tight: fishing boats, small workboats, pontoons and private jetties that lift nets, pots, outboard engines, stores or a small tender close to the side. It slews 330° and reaches 4.15 m, so place it where both the load and the landing spot sit inside that arc.

If your heaviest load is closer to 1 ton or must go further out, the SQ1ZA3TJ+1 is rated at 1,600 kg and reaches 4.23 m, at 380 kg self weight. Send us the heaviest load, the furthest point it must reach and a deck drawing, and we check them against the load chart.

1.34 m 800 kg
2.25 m 450 kg
3.23 m 300 kg
4.15 m 220 kg

Figures from the SQ08ZA3TJ+1 load chart, with the boom horizontal. With the boom raised to 75°, the hook reaches about 5.6 m above the base. The load chart is on the same sheet as the dimension drawing below.

Deck mounting dimensions

These figures come from the SQ08ZA3TJ+1 dimension drawing. Your shipyard or boat builder designs the pedestal and the deck reinforcement for the crane’s 220 kg self weight and its 1.3 t·m maximum lifting moment.

Base plate (round) Ø280 mm
Mounting bolt holes 12 × Ø14 mm
Bolt circle Ø252 mm
Centre hole in the base plate Ø105 mm
Hydraulic supply 8 L/min at 18 MPa, about 3.5 kW
Oil tank 20 L

We can adapt the mounting to your vessel’s deck, for example by changing the pedestal height. Download the SQ08ZA3TJ+1 dimension drawing and load chart (PDF)

Corrosion protection for sea duty

The T in SQ08ZA3TJ+1 marks the marine version, which receives a multi-layer anti-rust treatment for salt air and spray. How long a crane lasts on the water still depends on routine care: rinse it with fresh water after salt-water work, grease the slewing bearing and pins on schedule, and check hoses, fittings and the winch rope for corrosion and wear.

Ordering and service

Which configuration should we choose for this model?

Send the load, the outreach you need over the ship's side, the vessel type and where the crane will stand on deck. Our engineers confirm a practical model and mounting before quotation.

How is the crane mounted on the vessel?

The crane stands on its base plate, fixed to the deck or to a raised pedestal, and the base plate size is on the product drawing. Send us the deck structure at the crane position: we adapt the mounting to your vessel and confirm it with you.

Does this crane suit our sea conditions?

Tell us where the vessel works, whether you lift in port or at sea, and the conditions you expect during lifting. Our engineers check them against the load chart and confirm whether this model suits the job before quotation.

How is the crane protected against corrosion?

Tell us whether the vessel works in salt water or fresh water and where the crane sits on deck. We confirm the paint and surface protection for your conditions in writing with the quotation.

What is the delivery time, and which documents come with the order?

Lead time depends on the configuration, order quantity and destination, and we confirm it in writing with your quotation. Each order ships with a commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading, plus the product documents required for the confirmed order.

Do you help with installation and after-sales service?

Your shipyard fits the crane with our installation guidance and remote technical support. Cranes carry a 12-month warranty, we reply to service requests within 12 hours, and common spare parts ship within 48 hours.
