Boom Hauler
High-Speed Hydraulic Boom Retrieval System
The Canflex Boom Hauler is a rugged, hydraulically-powered dual-roller system engineered to streamline oil spill containment boom retrieval. Designed for rapid, controlled lifting, this device eliminates strenuous manual handling while improving operator safety and recovery efficiency. Its dual powered rollers deliver smooth traction and consistent pulling performance, even in demanding marine environments.
Engineered for Reliable, High-Speed Boom Recovery
✔ Dual Powered Roller System — Both upper and lower rollers are hydraulically driven, enabling smooth and controlled recovery of containment boom without the need to reef or manually manipulate the material. The upper roller features a float function for uniform traction across varying boom sizes.
✔ Fast Recovery Rates — Retrieves most containment booms at 50 to 100 ft/min, significantly reducing deployment and takedown times.
✔ Accommodates Multiple Boom Sizes — Standard 60-inch roller width accepts most boom profiles used in oil spill response operations.
✔ Shore-Based or On-Vessel Operation — The Boom Hauler’s compact footprint and ergonomic handling make it suitable for dockside recovery or onboard mounting.
✔ Reduced Operator Strain — No manual lifting required; an operator simply guides the boom into a neat stacking position as the machine retrieves it.
Built for Real-World Response Conditions
✔ Heavy-Duty Construction — Marine-ready frame, stainless steel fastenings, sealed bearings, and corrosion-resistant components.
✔ Flexible Mounting Options — Fork pockets in both directions are included as standard, with custom mounting bases available for vessels, decks, trailers, and remote sites.
✔ Portable, Adaptable, and Operator-Safe — Includes integrated safety cage, single pick-point for lifting, and optional hydraulic hose packages for different deployment setups.
✔ Trailer-Mount Option Available — Ideal for mobile response teams needing fast access to remote containment zones.
