With a load capacity of 3 tons and rugged all-steel construction, this rugged hand chain hoist requires only 16.5 inches of headroom and weighs in at 49 lbs. Labor saving drive train provides smooth operation with minimal effort. Load efficiency is maintained by double pawl springs in the braking system, and a slip-clutch prevents overloading the hoist. Machined gear components minimize chain wear and provide greater lift stability.
