X-HiDuo 138 B-2 Hiab X-HiDuo 138 B-2 Specifications & Technical Data (2016—2025)

nDurance

HIAB nDurance protects the crane from the elements with the best in surface protection. Technologically advanced and environmentally sound, this high-tech painting system first shields the crane’s parts with an ultra-thin nanoceramic layer that prevents corrosion. Afterwards they receive a lacquer polymer e-coating and a durable powder coating, creating stunning good looks that will last the crane’s lifetime.

Control that lets you shine

Each HIAB mid-range crane is available with a full selection of control systems, which is probably the smartest thing of all. This lets you match your crane to your way of doing things, whether you want a robust solution for basic lifting and loading or a high-precision solution for the finest remote control. This brochure focuses on remote control with the HIAB HiDuo control system.

The tools to work faster

HIAB X-HiDuo mid-range cranes give you truly competitive efficiency, especially in lift-and-load applications. With their fully optimised hydraulics and high level of accuracy, they let you achieve faster load cycles while working with confidence from the perfect vantage point.

Control with less effort and fuel

The HIAB HiDuo remote control system provides a smooth and rapid response to every touch of the ergonomic HIAB XSDrive controller. You can steer 24 proportional functions and seven on/off functions, performing several actions simultaneously thanks to the efficient valve technology. When you release the controls, automatic dumping returns the oil from the pump to the tank after three seconds. This extends oil life and helps to reduce fuel consumption.

Protection for both crane and load

Safety is a given with an X-HiDuo mid-range crane, thanks to an abundance of intelligent control features. Some of these prevent operator actions that might damage the crane itself. Others automatically dampen unwanted forces, reducing dynamic stress on the crane and keeping the load stable at all times.

Added capacity – without lost time

Perhaps the best control features are the ones that boost capacity when you need it most – without interrupting your work. Automatic Duty Control (ADC) and Automatic Speed Control (ASC) engage directly, without any stops or manual actions. Each increases capacity by up to 10%, letting you do more without breaking a sweat.

Load Stability System (LSS)

LSS automatically dampens abrupt stops that could otherwise cause the load to swing. This makes crane operation faster and smoother and helps protect the cargo, the vehicle and the work environment in the vicinity of the crane against potential damage.

Boom Deployment Assistant (BDA)

The Boom Deployment Assistant (BDA) monitors the angle and position of the boom during folding/unfolding, preventing the operator from making any movement that might damage the crane.

A mid-range crane

No matter what type of loads you move, there is a HIAB X-HiDuo mid-range crane to match. Our offering covers a full range of loading capacities, and we tailor a solution that meets your requirements in every detail. Your choice of control system is only a start.

For every need

With up to four hydraulic extensions, the B-link boom system essentially creates a crane without boom links, which is ideal for lift-and-load applications. If long outreach is more vital, the E-link boom system provides up to six hydraulic extensions, which allows higher positioning and lifts further away from the truck. Certain HIAB mid-range crane models are also available with an EP boom system, where the E-link construction has been optimised for fewer but longer extensions. This unique construction provides even more power for lifting close to the truck.

Hiab clx*

HIAB CLX is a robust, no-nonsense choice that lets you handle a variety of lifting and loading tasks with ease. Manual cross-control provides the same sequence of levers on both sides of the truck, which lets you operate from either side for the best safety and efficiency.

HIAB Duo

Like HIAB CLX, the HIAB Duo control system has a cross-control setup with the same lever sequence on both sides of the truck. But HIAB Duo takes manual control further. Besides giving you great lifting and loading performance, it incorporates a range of safety features and capacity-enhancing Automatic Duty Control (ADC).

Remote control systems

Remote control lets you work from a safe distance away or right where the action is – always with an unobstructed view. HIAB remote control systems are our most advanced, with a high level of safety and smart functions that give you added capacity when you need it.

HIAB HiDuo

HIAB HiDuo is a choice for high efficiency and value. It ensures great performance and fast load cycles, for example by allowing you to perform several actions simultaneously. The crane responds instantly to your lever movements and provides added stability even during vertical lifts, which means you have full control over the load at all times.

HIAB HiPro

HIAB HiPro is simply the best of the best, offering top versatility and precision for the very highest productivity. Its high flow of oil creates ultra-quick and ultra-smooth response, with support for a large number of simultaneous movements. That brings out the best in both crane and operator, ensuring rapid load cycles, total safety and the lowest lifetime cost.

Hydraulic hook

A hydraulic hook is used to pick up the pallet fork from the truck body in a more safe and efficient way. When the hook is used, the driver no longer has to climb up and down from the vehicle. The hook can also be used for attaching and detaching slings in remote positions.

Pallet fork

Handling loads with a pallet fork has a number of advantages. Since the load is palletised and lifted from underneath, it is possible to lift many different types of loads – including soft and flexible loads as well as solid ones. A pallet fork is also less expensive than the main alternative, a brick grab.

Brick grab

There is a lot to gain from using a brick grab, including speedier handling of your loads. The load does not have to be palletised, and it can be handled even in awkward positions where space is limited. HIAB brick grabs are extremely versatile and made to withstand heavy-duty work – all day, every day.

Rotator

A sturdy rotator is an important workhorse, especially when it comes to handling heavy or bulky loads with precision. We offer a wide range of gear-type and vane-type rotators, with shaft or flange attachments for connecting them to other accessories.
