AWP Types We Supply

Every aerial platform puts a different load on its counterweight, depending on how the structure moves and where the platform is in its working envelope. We build to the machine rather than to a catalogue number.

Scissor LiftsCounterweights for scissor-type platforms, sized to the machine's rated platform capacity and stability requirements at full working height.
Articulated BoomCounterweights for knuckle-boom lifts, including the 14 m class units shown below. Because the boom folds and unfolds, the machine's centre of gravity shifts through the working envelope and the counterweight is sized for the loaded conditions across it.
Telescopic BoomCounterweights for straight-boom lifts, including the 16 m class unit shown below.
Other PlatformsCounterweights and welded steel structures for other aerial and material-handling equipment. Send us the machine details and we will confirm what we can build.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which AWP brands do you make counterweights for?

We regularly produce counterweights for Genie, JLG, Skyjack, Haulotte, Snorkel, MEC, Dingli, Sinoboom and other brands. If your model is not listed, send us the brand and model or a drawing and we will confirm fitment.

Do you offer corrosion-resistant finishes for outdoor machines?

Yes. Standard finish is shot blasting + epoxy primer + PU topcoat, with custom RAL colors. For humid or marine environments we can specify a more corrosion-resistant coating system.

Can you design an integrated counterweight for our new model?

Yes. We can work from your chassis layout to design an integrated counterweight with the right mounting points, weight distribution, and machine balance for stability at working height.

Can I order a single sample first?

Yes. MOQ is 1 unit for samples and 5+ units for production batches. Sample lead time is 45 days depending on complexity.

Can you work from a physical sample?

Yes. We can reverse-engineer counterweights from a physical sample or from clear photos with measurements. Send us whatever you have and our engineers will take it from there.

What machine types do you supply AWP counterweights for?

Scissor lifts, articulated boom lifts, telescopic boom lifts, and other aerial work platforms. Send us the machine type and model and we will confirm fitment.

What quality documents come with each shipment?

Every order includes a material certificate (GB/T 1591 Q355B), dimensional inspection report, weight certificate, packing list, and certificate of origin. Each unit is dimensionally inspected and weighed before shipment.

How do you handle shipping and export paperwork?

We quote both FCL and LCL, and work on FOB or CIF terms. Export documentation is prepared on every order and we ship worldwide.
