The long reach arm gives the greatest reach of top loading arms for transferring hot fluids such as asphalt, sulphur and bitumen and consists of a horizontal boom assembly that give a wide range of operation on both vertical and horizontal planes. This allows truck or railcar compartments to be loaded without moving the vehicle. Arms for transfering hot fluids such as asphalt, sulphur and bitumen are available with either heating jackets and conenction lines for steam, heating oil or alternatively by electrical tracing (explosion proof certified). Loading Arms in various configurations are available for other products that require heating, includes foods and chemicals.
