    Why the Classic Lodestar Electric Chain Hoist is the Industry’s Top Choice

    Electric chain hoists are essential tools, engineered to lift and move heavy loads with precision and ease. Among the diverse models and brands available in the market today, the Classic Lodestar electric chain hoist is the industry’s top choice. Discover why its balanced, integrated and proven design, boasting a range of special features, distinguish it from the rest.

    Features

    The Classic Lodestar features hardened, forged steel, latch type hooks and Hoistaloy load chains ensuring long, dependable service with up to a 3-ton capacity. Designed for longevity and quiet operation, the gear train is lubricated with non-oxidizing grease for a lifetime of smooth performance. Its straightforward installation and low-maintenance design are among the many reasons this product remains a favorite.

    Special Applications

    This U.S.A. made electric chain hoist offers customizable special features to meet diverse operational needs.

Its lightweight, flexible material dampens noise and avoids shrinkage, making it perfect for outdoor environments.
