Industry veteran John Ellis created the Jellifish universal crash barrel lifting tool with safety, ease of use and dependable performance in mind. This patented tool, which has been refined over many years, is as of now the only one that can accommodate almost all types and brands of traffic barrels. The Jellifish is the perfect lifting tool for Big Sandy sand barrels from TrafFix Devices™.

Brand-specific lifting attachments are available from crash barrel manufacturers such as PSS and TrafFix Devices™. As a result, If you attempt to hoist a Big Sandy impact attenuator, it might not attach or the barrel could come loose mid-lift, possibly causing injury and leading to a mess of sand.

The Jellifish device was created to address this compatibility concern and give workers a dependably secure way to lift Big Sandy crash barrels and more. Each Jellifish is rated to manage weight up to 2,500 lbs, and is evaluated by a 3rd party facility for weight up to 3,125 lbs. A tag is attached to the unit to indicate approval for use once it successfully completes the testing.

TrafFix Devices™ Impact Attenuator Lifting Tool

Using the Jellifish as an effective TrafFix Devices™ impact attenuator lifting tool is incredibly easy. The Jellifish comes in at only 60 lbs. despite the fact that it can successfully lift many times its weight. Workers can use the included storage bag to effortlessly transport the device and connect it to the forklift's hook. Once the Jellifish is free of the bag, the individual working the machine can position the Jellifish over the Big Sandy traffic barrel that needs to be raised. Securing the Jellifish to the barrel is as simple as connecting the grab hook to the tail part of the chain.

When the team is done lifting traffic barrels for the day and no longer requires the Jellifish, it can be carefully dropped down back into the storage bag and released from the machine. With our impact attenuator lifting device, hoisting TrafFix Devices™' Big Sandy traffic barrels and more has never been simpler.
