Tractor Beams are relatively weak compared to Cargo Lock Beams.

Tractor beam
Type Utility device
Function Non-contact cargo ferrying
Size 132×72×84 cm
Mass 1,712.8 kg
Volume 172.14 kv
Corrosion resistance 475
Primary material Bastium
Composition
The tractor beam is a device that projects a ray which can be used to manipulate the object it touches. They can push, pull, and rotate the object in all directions, and are a useful tool for asteroid haulers.

Notes
Tractor Beams are relatively weak compared to Cargo Lock Beams. Attempting to pull or push an object whilst moving through space (depending on the objects weight) will cause the object to move according to loose objects in space. This means it is not feasible to pull or push objects on a set trajectory whilst moving using the Tractor Beam.
