Hoists have a cool-running motor for continuous operation. The brake stops the load and holds it in place when you're not lifting.

Hoists with overload protection will not operate when the load exceeds capacity.

Cast iron hoists have a durable housing for longer life than aluminum hoists.

A filter-regulator-lubricator (not included) is required to lubricate the gears and clean and regulate the incoming air.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Variable-Speed Precise-Positioning Compact Air-Powered Chain Hoists

Change or hold the speed at any time during operation so you can start the hoist softly and gradually decelerate. They are small and lightweight so you can easily move them between jobs. Hoists have a cool-running motor for continuous operation. The brake stops the load and holds it in place when you're not lifting, and overload protection prevents hoists from operating if the load exceeds capacity.

A filter-regulator-lubricator (not included) is required to lubricate the gears and clean and regulate the incoming air.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Spark-Resistant Air-Powered Chain Hoists

With Pull Control

With Lever Control

These hoists have an aluminum body, stainless steel chain, and bronze hooks for spark resistance. They have a cool-running motor for continuous operation. The brake stops the load and holds it in place when you're not lifting.

Hoists with overload protection will not operate when the load exceeds capacity.

A filter-regulator-lubricator (not included) is required to lubricate the gears and clean and regulate the incoming air.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Air-Powered Wire Rope Hoists

These hoists are quieter and more stable than air-powered chain hoists. Change or hold the speed at any time during operation, so you can start the hoist softly and gradually decelerate. Hoists have a cool-running motor for continuous operation. The brake stops the load and holds it in place when you're not lifting. The gears are enclosed to protect them from debris and contamination for smooth operation.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Heavy Duty Air-Powered Winches for Wire Rope—For Lifting

These winches operate longer and require shorter breaks than standard air-powered winches. Because they run on compressed air, they give you longer operating times than electric winches. They have an automatic brake that holds the load when the motor stops. To lift, mount winches above the load, or use winches with a pulley that’s mounted above the load. Enclosed gears offer protection from dirt and debris.

For wire rope, see Wire Rope with Hook for Winches.

Note: Capacity is highest for the first layer of rope (at least five wraps of rope on the winch) and decreases as each additional layer of rope is wound on the winch.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
