Gregory Crucible Lifters is a device available to safely handle and position crucibles during a furnace change out operation. The design allows use in situations where there is only 2" clearance between the crucible and the furnace wall or heating elements. The incredible lifting strength of the device will even permit a fully frozen crucible to be safely removed!

Proper use of the "Gregory Crucible Lifter" will not only eliminate damage to crucibles, but also will prevent damage to furnace elements and eliminate costly repairs. The "Gregory Crucible Lifter" has been proven over the years to reduce the safety hazards associated with a crucible change while dramatically reducing the necessary man-hours.
