Key Features

• Durable All-Steel Construction: Built with an impact-resistant, all-steel frame and a durable powder coat finish, this manual chain hoist is engineered for longevity in tough environments.
• Efficient Manual Operation: The hand chain mechanism features needle bearings supporting the load sheave, which increases efficiency and promotes smooth lifting and lowering with minimal effort. Triple-spur gears further enhance operational efficiency.
• Reliable Braking System: An enclosed Weston-type automatic brake system provides precise load spotting and secure holding. The double ratchet pawl design enhances safety by splitting the load across opposite sides of the ratchet gear.
• Grade 80 Load Chain: Equipped with an induction-hardened, Grade 80 black oxide coated load chain, offering superior durability and corrosion resistance for prolonged service life.
• Swiveling Safety Hooks: Industrial-rated, drop-forged alloy steel hooks rotate 360 degrees for easy rigging and feature heavy-duty cast-steel safety latches secured with Allen screws and lock nuts. These hooks are designed to slowly stretch to indicate an overload situation, providing an additional safety measure.
• Compact Design: The lightweight and compact structure makes this hoist suitable for applications with low headroom or in confined working areas.
• Safety Standards Compliance: This hoist complies with stringent safety standards including OSHA, ANSI/ASME B30.16, and HST-2, and is factory tested to 125% of its capacity.
