Cylinder Lifter

Cylinder Lifter Cylinder Lifter has been specifically designed to enable the safe loading of gas cylinders on and of mounting platforms

Specifically designed to enable the safe loading of gas cylinders on and off mobile welding sets. With over 30 years experience in the industry, we are more than aware that many have suffered back pain associated with the continual churning (rolling) and bear hugging (lifting) of 80 plus kg cylinders on and off weld sets, and with no market specific lifting apparatus to combat these issues. Cylind

er Lifter have designed, developed and manufactured a suitable device to answer this long overdue problem. The Cylinder Lifter is a unique, innovative device, designed, manufactured and tested in the UK. Its purpose is not only to minimise the risk of injury to employees, but also to answer the questions set out for employers in the legal obligations under HSE manual handling operations regulations for risk assessment of employees. "Avoid manual handling operations so far as is reasonably practicable"

"Assess the risk in any manual handling operations that cannot be avoided and reduce the risk of injury so far as reasonably practicable"

Day 2 of the Cylinder Lifter June USA Demo Tour.

Today started with a quick stop at Fort Armstrong in Davenport, Iowa.

Standing beside the monument is a stack of cannonballs known as a "Brass Monkey", associated with the old Royal Navy saying, "It's cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey.

From there, the tour continued to the Mississippi waterfront overlooking the City of Davenport and the mighty Mississippi River. An impressive sight and a reminder of the industrial heritage that helped build America.

While in Davenport, Pat also dropped in on SJ Smith. We hope to arrange Cylinder Lifter demonstrations with their Outside Sales teams in the near future and appreciate the warm welcome.

Every stop on this tour is about meeting the people who move cylinders every day and demonstrating a safer way to handle them.

If your team is moving cylinders frequently, there is risk involved.

Cylinder Lifter is designed to reduce strain, improve control and make cylinder handling safer.

Day 1 of the Cylinder Lifter June USA Demo Tour.

We’re on the road from Dayton, Ohio to Denver, Colorado — roughly 1,300 miles.

First stop: Indianapolis, meeting with two independent distributors and getting the Lifter in front of people who understand the daily risks of moving heavy high-pressure cylinders.

If your team is moving cylinders frequently, even over small height changes, there is risk involved.

Cylinder Lifter is designed to reduce that strain and make cylinder handling safer.

How are you moving these?

Manually lifting and hurting yourself? Or using a lifter that removes danger and increases productivity?

If you want it to be the latter get in touch so that we can discuss how the Cylinder Lifter can aid you.

Manual handling often feels quicker in the moment. No setup, no equipment, just get it done and move on.

But over time, that approach slows things down in less obvious ways. Adjustments, repositioning, fatigue, and the need to be cautious all add up.

What feels faster isn’t always more efficient. It just feels familiar.

When the process becomes more controlled, the time becomes more consistent, and the effort required drops significantly.

Last week it was Welding College day at AWISCO today with 5 schools attending.

A great opportunity for us to show case Cylinder Lifter because they are commonly required to pick up and change the depleted bottles.

Thanks for the invite, it was fantastic to see so many young people wanting to understand more about welding and the pitfalls of lifting manually.

At the start of the day, everything feels controlled. Movements are sharper, posture is better, and there’s more awareness in how tasks are carried out.

As fatigue sets in, that changes.

Small adjustments become less precise, posture starts to shift, and the same task requires more effort to complete safely.

That’s when risk increases, even if nothing about the task itself has changed.

It’s not just about how something is lifted. It’s about when it’s lifted and in what condition.

On site, no task exists in isolation. One lift leads to another, and another, often across different environments, surfaces, and conditions.

Each one might feel manageable on its own. But over time, the physical demand adds up.

The issue isn’t the individual lift. It’s the accumulation of all of them.

That’s where strain builds, and that’s where consistency starts to drop

There’s a better way to move cylinders. Most just haven’t seen it yet!

In many workplaces, things are done a certain way simply because that’s how they’ve always been done.

Manual handling becomes normal, even when better options exist. Not because people choose risk, but because they haven’t been shown an alternative that fits into their day-to-day.

Once a different approach is introduced, the shift is usually immediate. What once felt standard starts to look unnecessary.

Sometimes the biggest change isn’t in the task itself. It’s in how people see it.

Manual handling training doesn’t remove the risk!

Training is important. It helps people understand how to lift, how to position themselves, and how to reduce strain.

But it doesn’t remove the risk entirely.

Even with the best technique, the task still relies on balance, control, and physical effort. That means the risk is still present, just managed slightly better.

There’s a difference between reducing risk and removing it. Training supports the person. Equipment supports the process.

In welding environments, cylinders aren’t just heavy objects. They carry pressure, potential risk, and consequences that go far beyond a simple lift.

Most people working with them already understand that. They respect the equipment, the materials, and the environment.

But that same level of awareness isn’t always applied to how they’re moved. Manual handling is still seen as acceptable, even when the risks are well understood.

If something is recognised as dangerous, every part of how it’s handled should reflect that.
