SKS Manual chain hoists
A manual chain hoist is a hand-operated lifting device used for hoisting loads.
In addition to the load chain connected to the hook, it includes a hand chain that is manually pulled.
Through a gear mechanism, this allows loads to be lifted easily without the use of electricity.

Fact Box
The hand chain hoist can lift anything in the range:
250 kg to 12,500 kg
Manual chain hoists can be supplied either for single-point suspension or mounted on a trolley.
Due to their cost-effectiveness, they are ideal for maintenance cranes that are not used daily, or for very tight spaces where installing other types of hoists is not feasible.
Thanks to their simple design, manual chain hoists are also easy to transport and mount in various locations.
- Low self-weight
- Economical
- Highly flexible in capacity
