16 ton knuckle boom articulating crane

Lift and reach for every 16 ton model, plus the brochure.

PM builds the 16 ton knuckle boom crane in several boom configurations, so the choice is really about reach: a shorter boom lifts more close in, a longer one puts less weight further out. The models below are the ones we supply and service.

16 ton models, lift and reach

  • Model 16521: max lift 5,622 lb, max reach 20 ft 4 in
  • Model 16522: max lift 4,299 lb, max reach 26 ft 3 in
  • Model 16523: max lift 3,086 lb, max reach 32 ft 6 in
  • Model 16524: max lift 2,205 lb, max reach 38 ft 7 in
  • Model 16525: max lift 1,653 lb, max reach 45 ft 3 in

What this size is usually doing

A 16 ton PM is a truck-mounted articulating crane: it folds behind the cab, so the deck stays usable, and it reaches over an obstacle instead of around it. Ours go out on drywall and wallboard work, precast, roofing, poured wall and general construction.

Not sure which size you need?

Tell us the heaviest thing you lift and how far out you have to place it, and we will tell you which crane covers it. Getting this wrong is expensive in both directions.
