Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a wire rope hoist and a chain hoist?

Wire rope hoists use a steel cable wound around a drum, making them ideal for heavier loads and higher lift speeds, typically ranging from 3 to 15 tons. Chain hoists use a linked chain and are generally suited for lighter capacities. Wire rope hoists are preferred for industrial applications requiring continuous, high-capacity lifting.
