Lidgerwood Manufacturing Com- pany of New York, was established in 1873 as a continuation of the

Speedwell Iron Works of Morris- town, N.J. From its standard hoist- ing equipment, Lidgerwood evolved marine winches.

These were produced extensively for steam power and later were adapted to electric applications.

Capstans, anchor windlasses, and marine winches still continue to be a source of pride to Lidgerwood, which has definitely stood the test of time.

The company offers a full range of well-illustrated literature that de- tails the capabilities, special fea- tures, and specifications of its line of marine equipment. Included are marine equipment such as inte- grated barge moving systems; car- pullers; capstans; steam hoists; trawling winches; towing winches; mooring bits and winches; cargo winches; gasoline, diesel, or electric hoists; anchor hoists; crane, dock, hatch cover, and dredge hoists, and windlasses.
