XCMG XGT5013C-5S1 Topless Tower Crane

5-ton maximum lifting capacity at minimum radius, 1.3-ton tip load at the 50 m maximum working range. 63 t·m rated lifting moment. Sized for residential and mid-rise housing construction, large venue projects, bridge pier and tower work, and equipment placement on nuclear and thermal power station construction sites where horizontal trolley-traverse reach matters more than peak lifting capacity.

Horizontal flat-top jib with no tower mast extending above. Lowers the overall vertical envelope of the crane when erected — useful for sites under airport approach corridors, helicopter operations zones, or with maximum-height restrictions where a luffing-jib crane's elevated mast would intrude. Standard fit where multiple tower cranes cluster on the same site and overlap is managed by horizontal radius rather than vertical jib elevation. For projects requiring elevated-jib airspace management instead, see the sibling XGL80-6S / XGL80E-6S luffing-jib models.

Free-standing operational height of 40.7 m without external tie-back — the standard C-section tower configuration. With climbing tie-back to the building structure, total operational height reaches 158 m. Supports housing and commercial construction up to roughly 45-50 floors. 330 m drum capacity matched to the horizontal trolley-traverse jib system. For projects requiring extended pre-tieback range, the sibling XGT5013D-5S1 reinforced-tower variant offers 47 m free-standing height.

The 5S1 variant inherits hydraulic and electrical control conventions from XCMG's truck crane line, applied to a tower crane platform. Operators familiar with mobile-crane controls have a shorter learning curve transitioning to the XGT5013C-5S1, and shared control philosophy simplifies cross-training across mobile and tower-crane crews on the same project.

Hook blocks, trolley assemblies, and accessories share core part numbers with other XCMG cranes — lower inventory carrying cost for contractors operating mixed mobile and tower-crane rosters on the same project.
