Top Quality Chain Hoist | Chain Hoist

Chain hoists are incredibly versatile tools that find applications in a wide range of industries. From construction and manufacturing to mining and shipbuilding, chain hoists are used for lifting and moving heavy loads in diverse settings. They are employed in tasks such as lifting machinery, positioning equipment, and handling large components. The ability to handle substantial weights makes chain hoists indispensable in industries where efficient material handling is crucial.

Safety is paramount when working with chain hoists to prevent accidents and injuries. Proper training on the correct usage of chain hoists is essential for operators. It is crucial to conduct a thorough inspection of the hoist before each use, checking the load chain, hooks, and connections for any signs of wear, damage, or deformities. Adhering to proper lifting techniques, such as balancing the load and securing it correctly, is crucial to avoid accidents during lifting and moving operations.

There are two different chains in chain block which are load chain and hand chain. Load chain lifts or lower the loads when the hand chain is pulled. If you want to move the loads side to side, Trolley combined with chain block can be used.

Chain hoist is optimized to bear vertical loads. When fixing or pulling a load, upper hook, bottom hook and load chain should be aligned in vertical position in order to bear the safety load.

According to Occupation Safety and Health Acts, hook and load chain of lever Hoist should be replaced if the hook throat opening is stretched by more than 10% or if load chain is stretched by more than 5%. Load chain, hook and chain pin which are directly bearing the load should be checked regularly since stretched length is difficult to measure through visual inspection. Lever Hoists are devices that are easily exposed to risk of overload, be careful when using such devices.
