The best performing chain hoists

Image
 The lifting and lowering device, known as hoist is used for raising and lowering heavy loads. It is equipment that performs these functions using a lift wheel around which chain or rope wraps. For lifting or lowering heavy load/materials a hoist may have chain, wire rope of fiber rope and can be operated manually, electrically or pneumatically. A hoist that uses chain for lifting or lowering the load is termed as chain hoist. The chain hoist is extensively used in factories, warehouses, construction sites. It helps workers to carry out lifting and lowering functions without physical labor and stress in much lesser time. Chain hoist is known to have a higher degree of efficiency and load carrying capacity. A manual chain hoist is also referred as chain block lifts and lower bulky and heavy items using a chain. The chain hoist usually contains two wheels and chain that winds around wheels. On manually pulling the chain, it winds around the wheel, creates tension in the loop and star...

Chain block of highest quality and performance

  Lifting or lowering heavy load, we quite often see at construction sites, in industrial units, garages and in warehouses besides various other places where movement of heavier load is involved. Chain blocks play a crucial role in helping reduce human burden and provide safe way of moving heavy load up or down. A chain block, also termed as a hand chain hoist, block or tackle is important equipment that usually has top and bottom hooks and heavy-duty chains. The top hook is a static hook meant to suspend the hoist from static beam clamp or beam travelling trolley and the bottom hook is ‘I’ shaped to which load is attached. Chain blocks  consist of two wheels on which the lifting chain is wound around. When the hand chain is pulled, the chain tightens its grip and winds around the wheels to initiate the process of lifting the heavy load attached to the chain with the help of hook. When suspended by a beam travelling trolley, chain block can transverse horizontally along the be...
