Manual Hoists
Manual Hoists
Manual hoists are simple, hand-operated devices designed for lifting and lowering loads in various applications where a power source like electricity or compressed air is not available or practical. They are compact, portable, and reliable tools that require physical effort to operate. Manual hoists are often chosen for their versatility and cost-effectiveness, especially for lighter loads and occasional lifting needs.
The most common types of manual hoists include manual chain hoists and lever hoists. Manual chain hoists consist of a hand-operated chain wheel that, when rotated, raises or lowers a load. Lever hoists, on the other hand, use a lever mechanism to accomplish the same task. They are compact and can be easily carried to different work locations, making them suitable for construction, maintenance, and repair tasks.
Manual hoists are prized for their simplicity and robust construction. They are often used in situations where precise control over lifting speed and positioning is not critical, but the reliability of lifting operations is essential. While they have limitations in terms of lifting capacity and speed compared to powered hoists, manual hoists remain valuable tools in many workplaces for their affordability and reliability.
SHB Kito Hand Hoist
Sometimes there’s just not enough room above a load to use a standard hoist. That’s where the low profile SHB hoist and trolley combo work where others can’t. Built around the quality CB hoist with headroom’s as low as 4.5 inches, the SHB is ideal for demanding industrial lifting applications where space is extra tight.
RCB Kito Hand Chain Hoist
The RCB’s spark resistant design is certified to ATEX standards to ensure safer lifting in dust-laden or explosive gas atmospheres. The RCB is specifically designed for use in petroleum, pharmaceutical and food industries, or any application where safety is improved by the use of anti-sparking equipment. Be sure to look for the ATEX mark to know that your hoist is safe to use in environments with combustible gases, vapours and dusts.
CF Kito Hand Chain Hoist
The CF exemplifies simplicity in design while making zero compromises on performance. Its die cast aluminum body reduces the hoist weight and won’t corrode when exposed to the elements. Plus, the proven 1:1 ratio gear system makes it a fast hoist that’s reliable and maintenance friendly. The CF is simply the best choice when you need an economical hoist that doesn’t skimp on toughness.
