5 Ton Electric Chain Hoists

A 5 ton electric chain hoist is rated to safely lift up to 10,000 lbs (5 tons) of material. This capacity makes it suitable for moving heavy machinery, structural components, and industrial equipment in manufacturing, warehousing, and fabrication environments.

Our 5 ton electric chain hoists are available in 230V and 460V configurations, both offered as 3-phase power setups. This flexibility allows the hoist to integrate with most existing industrial electrical infrastructure without requiring costly facility modifications.

5 ton chain hoists can be configured with geared trolleys, motorized trolleys, push trolleys, or hook-mounted setups. The right choice depends on your overhead runway system, frequency of use, and whether manual or powered horizontal travel is required.

Most 5 ton electric chain hoist models ship within 2-4 weeks as standard lead time. Expedited shipping options may be available for urgent needs; contact a specialist to confirm current lead times for your specific configuration.

Standard lift heights include 10', 15', and 20', with custom lift heights available upon request. This allows the hoist to be matched precisely to your facility's ceiling clearance and specific lifting application requirements.

5 ton electric chain hoists are available with lifting speeds ranging from approximately 5.5 FPM to 55 FPM, allowing operators to select between slower, more controlled lifts or faster cycle times depending on the application.
