FAQ
A hand chain hoist is hung from a fixed point and lifted by pulling a hand chain, so it suits vertical lifts. A lever hoist is operated with a ratcheting handle and works in any position, so it is better for pulling, tensioning and alignment work.
The M3CB is Kito's heavy-duty hoist for industrial use and cold conditions, the CF is a lighter standard-duty hoist, and the CX is a compact miniature hoist. For low headroom, the SHB and NTH combine a hoist with a trolley.
Yes. The LB-SC adds a slip clutch that holds the load in place when an excessive overload is detected, and the CX hand chain hoist has a standard overload limiter.
We supply genuine Kito replacement parts and load chain. Search the Kito Hoist & Parts Finder by part number or send us the hoist model and serial number.
