Low Headroom Manual Chain Hoists with Push or Geared Trolleys
Low headroom manual chain hoist and trolley combinations provide efficient lifting and horizontal load movement where overhead clearance is limited. Designed for gantry cranes, jib cranes, monorail systems, maintenance areas, machine shops, warehouses, and production facilities, these compact hoist assemblies help maximize raised hook height while supporting controlled material handling along an I-beam.
Compact Hoist and Trolley Design
The low profile design minimizes the distance between the beam and hook, making it a strong choice for applications where additional lifting height is needed. Each chain hoist includes 10 feet of vertical hook travel, with an alloy steel load chain and galvanized carbon steel hand chain for dependable manual operation.
Push and Geared Travel Options
This family includes push trolley and geared trolley models to match different load handling needs. Push models are moved manually along the beam, while geared models use a hand chain to drive trolley movement for improved control when positioning heavier loads.
Beam Fit and Capacity Range
Models fit wide flange or S-type I-beams with flange widths from 2 inches to 8 inches, depending on capacity. Available load ratings range from 1,000 lb. to 6,000 lb., with heavy-duty steel construction and a bright orange finish for visibility. Assembly is required, giving users a practical lifting solution for tight overhead spaces and demanding industrial environments.
