The SQ3.2ZA3TJ is one of 17 models in our Knuckle Boom Marine Cranes range, which runs from 0.8 t to 25 t.

The SQ3.2ZA3TJ is a 3.2 ton knuckle boom marine crane. It lifts 3,200 kg at 2.1 m, 910 kg at 5.9 m and 680 kg at its full 7.7 m reach, with a 6.8 t·m maximum lifting moment and 360° slewing. It weighs 1,236 kg.

Where the 3.2 ton SQ3.2ZA3TJ fits

The SQ3.2ZA3TJ lifts 3,200 kg near the column and still handles 680 kg at 7.7 m, which covers the full beam of most small workboats. It suits fishing vessels, workboats, small cargo boats and jetties that need a winch to lift from below deck level. Folded it measures 2,271 × 684 mm, so it can sit beside a wheelhouse without blocking the walkway.

Need a longer, straight boom instead? Compare the 3.2 ton telescopic boom marine crane (SQ3.2SA4T).

We size a marine crane by the load and the radius you need, not by vessel length. Send us the heaviest load, the furthest point it must reach and a deck drawing, and we check them against the SQ3.2ZA3TJ load chart and the deck space it needs when folded.

Deck mounting dimensions

These figures come from the SQ3.2ZA3TJ dimension drawing. Your shipyard or naval architect designs the pedestal and the deck reinforcement for the crane’s 1,236 kg self weight and its 6.8 t·m maximum lifting moment.

Base plate 550 × 550 mm
Mounting bolt holes 16 × Ø21 mm
Bolt pattern 500 × 500 mm
Folded size (L × W × H) 2,271 × 684 × 1,951 mm
Self weight 1,236 kg
Max. lifting moment 6.8 t·m

We can adapt the mounting to your vessel’s deck, for example by changing the pedestal height. Download the SQ3.2ZA3TJ dimension drawing (PDF)

Corrosion protection for sea duty

The T in SQ3.2ZA3TJ marks the marine version, which receives a multi-layer anti-rust treatment for salt air and spray. How long a crane lasts in a harbour 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.

FAQ

Questions about the SQ3.2ZA3TJ

About the SQ3.2ZA3TJ

What hydraulic supply does the SQ3.2ZA3TJ need?

25 L/min at 25 MPa. We recommend 15 kW of hydraulic power. Send us the vessel's hydraulic data and we confirm the match when we quote.

What warranty and minimum order apply to the SQ3.2ZA3TJ?

The SQ3.2ZA3TJ carries a 12-month warranty, and you can order from 1 unit.

Can the SQ3.2ZA3TJ lift 3.2 tons at full reach?

No. It lifts 3,200 kg at 2.1 m, and the capacity falls with radius to 680 kg at 7.7 m. Check the load chart on this page at your working radius.

What base plate and bolts does the SQ3.2ZA3TJ need on deck?

A 550 × 550 mm base plate with 16 × Ø21 mm holes on a 500 × 500 mm bolt pattern. Your yard designs the pedestal and the deck reinforcement for the crane’s 1,236 kg self weight and 6.8 t·m lifting moment.

What size of boat or barge suits the SQ3.2ZA3TJ?

We size the crane by load and reach, not by vessel length. The SQ3.2ZA3TJ weighs 1,236 kg and needs 25 L/min at 25 MPa from about 15 kW, supplied by the vessel’s hydraulic system or by an electric or diesel power unit we can provide. Your naval architect should confirm deck strength and stability with the crane at its full 7.7 m reach.

Is the SQ3.2ZA3TJ approved by a classification society?

No. Our hydraulic marine cranes for harbours, barges, workboats and inshore vessels are not certified by a classification society. If your vessel or project needs class approval, confirm it with us before you order.

How much deck space does the SQ3.2ZA3TJ take when folded?

Folded, it measures 2,271 × 684 × 1,951 mm. Unfolded, it reaches 7.7 m from the slewing centre.

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.
