Columbus McKinnon Adds Magnetek® Flex Duo™ Radio Remote Control to STAHL CraneSystems® Portfolio

As part of Columbus McKinnon's efforts to combine the industry-leading features and capabilities of its STAHL CraneSystems® and Magnetek® brands, we have added the Flex Duo™ radio remote controls to the STAHL CraneSystems product portfolio. Flex Duo is a true two-button, handheld radio remote control system built specifically for single-motion applications, such as hoists, boat lifts, trailers, pumps, and more. The Flex Duo is designed for dual-direction motion such as up/down, forward/backward, or in/out. 

Other two-button transmitters are often scaled-down versions of larger systems that include blocked-out buttons. As a true two-button transmitter, the Flex Duo is designed to be lightweight and is comfortably contoured to fit in the palm of an operator’s hand with the same high-quality construction as other Magnetek Flex radio remote controls.
