Manual Chain Hoist, 1-Ton Capacity, 2.5m Lifting Height
Overview
This 1-ton manual chain hoist delivers controlled, safe lifting for production lines, warehouses, and workshop environments where precision matters. The soft-start mechanism eliminates jerks at start and stop, ensuring operator safety and load stability. Built with a robust G80 load chain and forged hooks with integrated safety latches, this hoist is engineered for consistent performance across demanding environments. For operations requiring greater lift capacity, consider pairing with a 2-ton chain hoist or supplementing with a 2.5-ton floor jack for versatile heavy-load handling.
Key Features
- Soft-Start Operation: Eliminates jerks during engagement and disengagement, reducing shock loads on the chain and protecting both operator and load
- Precision Control: High-precision mechanical operation allows for fine positioning of heavy components
- Universal Mounting: Integrated suspension hook allows installation in any location—overhead beams, gantries, or fixed structures
- G80 Load Chain: Heavy-duty industrial-grade chain (6mm diameter) rated for 1.5-ton test load, ensuring reliability beyond nominal capacity
- Safety-Latched Hooks: Both upper and lower hooks feature spring-loaded safety latches preventing accidental load disengagement
- Compact Footprint: 270mm minimum distance between hooks enables lifting in confined spaces
Business Advantages for Resellers
- High-Demand Category: Manual chain hoists remain essential in facilities lacking electrical infrastructure or requiring fail-safe equipment
- Durable, Low-Maintenance Design: No motors, pumps, or electronics mean minimal service calls and strong margins on spare parts (hooks, chains)
- Cross-Sell Opportunity: Pairs naturally with higher-capacity alternatives and floor jacks for complete lifting solutions
- Compliance-Ready: CE-marked with 1.5-ton test load certification—meets warehouse and production-line safety standards across European markets
- Bulk Order Friendly: Lightweight housing and modular design reduce shipping costs per unit on multi-pack orders
