News Release

Canton Erectors, a rigging and heavy haul trucking company based in Canton, Ohio, used a National Crane NBT45 boom truck to erect a series of flagpoles at the Pro Football Hall of Fame, also located in Canton. Brian Selinsky, owner of Canton Erectors, said that the NBT45 was chosen for its ability to fit on a job site where there was not much room for outrigger placement. The 45 USt capacity boom truck lifted three 66 ft-tall flagpoles, which weigh between 0.3 USt and 0.35 USt, to a height of 50 ft for the job, and the crane’s ground level and in-cab outrigger controls enabled quick and easy set-up. Richfield, Ohio-based ALT Sales Corp, a member of the ALL Family of Companies, provided the crane for the project, which was completed in less than six hours in June of 2016.
