Crane Scale for Sale Houston: Hanging vs S-Type from Cypress
A Houston fab or scrap yard searching “crane scale for sale Houston” does not need another CS-1000 spec reprint. It needs a Cypress dealer who will ask hanging self-contained versus an S-type kit, then put a live carton on a hoist. All Scales USA stocks the hanging bodies at crane scales, the S-type kits at S-type crane kits, and the combined leaf at crane and hanging kits. This post is the buyer chooser. The SKU articles already live stay where they are.
Caption: CS-1000 already posted — 1000 lb × 0.5 lb hanging crane, $563.98. This article does not reprint that H1.
Self-contained hanging vs an S-type kit
Pete at pete@allscales.com, (832) 766-5410, runs the same talk from Katy, the Ship Channel, and Tomball. If the load hangs from a hook and you want a display on the body, that is a self-contained hanging crane. If the cell sits in the line with eye bolts and the indicator is on a cable, that is an S-type kit. Do not order a 99 lb handheld because a leftover title said crane. Do not order a 20,000 lb hanging body because you wanted 1 lb on an S-type kit.
The SKU posts already on this blog: Brecknell CS-1000 from Cypress — 1000 lb × 0.5 lb, $563.98, process, not legal-for-trade. MNM Scales 20,000 lb hanging crane — 20,000 lb × 5 lb, $998, process. MNM Scales ST-20K S-type kit — 20,000 lb × 1 lb, $799, assembled kit NTEP No. The 10,000 lb chooser already live: 10,000 lb crane scale kit chooser. S-type buyer guide: S-type crane scale kit guide.

What Pete asks before a crane leaves FM 529
Heaviest pick this week under 1,000 lb, 3,000 lb, or 20,000 lb? Ceiling first, then hanging vs kit.
Display on the hook, or a cell in the line with a 20 ft cable and a stainless indicator?
Texas sale by weight? CS-1000, the 20k hanging, ST-20K assembled kit, and OP-924B live pages are process — not legal-for-trade cranes. Place in service is not this carton.
Handheld 99 lb? That is hanging, not a crane body — ElectroSamson post, not this leaf.
Live hanging example already on the shelf that does not have its own 2026 SKU H1: the MNM Scales OP-924B LCD 3,000 lb — 3,000 lb × 0.5 lb, $359, twenty in stock. Always MNM Scales. The Optima-branded sibling, MNM Scales prepared, is the OP-924B-2000LCD at $449, ten in stock. We will not link a third-party Optima site. Maker family for the 1000 lb hanging: Brecknell CS Series.

How Cypress sells a Houston crane
The CS-1000 is the 1000 lb hanging we hand a Houston shop when the pick is under a half-ton and they want the display on the body. Ten in stock at $563.98 is why that listing leaves 21249 FM 529 Rd this week. The 20k hanging at $998 is the overhead scrap and fab job. ST-20K at $799 is the kit when they already have hardware in the line and want 1 lb. OP-924B at $359 is the 3,000 lb LCD hanging when 1,000 lb is tight and 20,000 lb is silly. Those four sentences are the crane-for-sale talk. The rest is a phone call.
We do not do truck scales, pit scales, axle scales, or weighbridges. A crane is a hoist call. How we take it: Houston calibration from Cypress. Service: scale calibration Houston. No ISO 17025. No A2LA.
Pete will hang a known mass on the hook at 21249 FM 529 Rd if you ask. That is a Cypress bench conversation, not a certificate. We will not print Texan-certified on a hanging crane. If a test mass comes up, we say Texan-tested.
Typical Cypress jobs: a Katy fab that outgrew a 1,000 lb hanging, a scrap yard that wanted 20k on the hook, a millwright who thought ST-20K was a legal-for-trade kit because the leftover URL said ntep-load-cell. Assembled kit NTEP No. Indicator-only CoC is not the kit. House kits we build in the same shop are always MNM Scales — full name. Sister catalog: ek1200i.com and mnmscales.com. We will not name competitor dealers.
A self-contained hanging body is why a Houston hoist can read the pick without a cable. An S-type kit is why a 20 ft lead and two eye bolts beat a 40 lb hanging shell when the hardware is already in the line. $563.98, $998, $799, and $359 are the live Cypress prices tonight. Those sentences are the buyer post — not a reprint of CS-1000, the 20k hanging, or ST-20K.

A Saturday call from a Cypress fabricator who already priced a 10k hanging and then asked for 1 lb is why ST-20K sits next to the 20k hanging on the same rack. We would rather you stand under the hook at FM 529 than guess from a leftover marketplace title. Email pete@allscales.com a photo of the shackle and the heaviest pick if you are unsure hanging versus kit.
In-shop, we will not send a 99 lb ElectroSamson to a 2,000 lb hoist. That handheld has its own post. Crane scale for sale Houston should land here, then a leaf, then (832) 766-5410.
A Ship Channel scrap call that already priced a 10k hanging and then asked for 1 lb is why Cypress keeps ST-20K next to the 20k hanging instead of talking everyone into one body. Twenty OP-924B units at $359 is a real Cypress count. If the leftover title said Optima, the 3,000 lb carton we actually brand is MNM Scales, and the 2,000 lb Optima listing is MNM Scales prepared — no third-party Optima URL.
Searchers land on crane scale for sale Houston, then a leaf, then a live SKU. We would rather you stand under the hook at 21249 FM 529 Rd than bounce off a leftover marketplace dump. Email a photo of the shackle. We will not stretch a 99 lb handheld into a 20,000 lb pick.
FAQ
Is this another CS-1000 or ST-20K spec reprint?
No. Those H1s are already live. This post is the Houston crane-for-sale chooser with live prices.
Are these hanging cranes legal-for-trade in Texas?
Live pages on CS-1000, the 20k hanging, ST-20K assembled kit, and OP-924B are process. Do not treat them as complete legal-for-trade cranes. Call if the job is actually a sale by weight.
