Starting with the mini air hoist which widens the range of applications in the light duty sector as a handy, flexible and universally deployable hoist making it an ideal tool for a wide range of light / medium manufacturing applications. Beginning at 125Kg safe working load the mini range includes 250Kg, 500Kg and 980Kg units.
Rated Capacity 140Kg
An ideal workbench hoist, lightweight and portable (self weight less than 10Kg) it has a maximum height of 2 Metres and operates a 100% duty cycle.
Smooth Operation - Efficient rotary vane motor provides high uniform torque for quick response and smooth quite operation.
Easy To Use - Handle-mounted pendant control four one-handed operation and load positioning.
Variable Speeds - Precise and variable speed control for accurate load positioning.
Wire Rope Design - Self-winding galvanised lifting cable stores conveniently inside unit.
Suspension - Swivel top and bottom hooks with safety catches standard for portability and quick installation.
Disc Brake - Secures load and eliminates drift when pendant is released.
Note - An air fitter-regulator-lubricator is recommended for optimum operation
Light weight (Aluminium housing) pneumatic hoists suitable for application where duty is onerous. The component design improves handling whilst maintaining high performance.
The speed of the TCS Hoist can be changed by adjusting a valve on the outside of the hoist. The new polycarbonate pendant gives superb control even at low speeds. Comes complete with a plastic chain colled 5 meter H.O.L
Features
A comprehensive range of pneumatic hoists suitable for both marine and industrial environments. They are particularly suited to environments here there is a risk of explosion due to inflammable gases or where duty is onerous.

An air chain hoist, air hoist, hoist, chain hoist and pneumatic hoist is used in the automotive, chemical industry, on and offshore industry, in shipyards and in tunnel construction. By the use of compressed air, applications for our air hoists, air chain hoists, hoists, chain hoists, pneumatic hoists, cranes, trolleys, lifting equipment and winches know no bounds.
Lifting Gear Direct's Air Hoists will stand up to the roughest treatment. Overheating is never a problem, even during intensive operation at maximum load. Outstanding inching characteristics give precise load control. Compact, light-weight designs make installation easy. Both hoists and trolleys are available in spark-resistant versions. Designed to complement the hoists, Atlas Copco trolleys are supplied as manual or motor-driven units.
The basic hoist has two important characteristics to define it: Lifting medium and power type. The lifting medium is either wire rope, wrapped around a drum, or load-chain, raised by a pulley with a special profile to engage the chain. The power type can be either electric motor or air motor. Both the wire rope hoist and chain hoist have been in common use since the 1800s. A hoist can be built as one integral-package unit, designed for cost-effective purchasing and moderate use, or it can be built as a built-up custom unit, designed for durability and performance. The built-up hoist will be much more expensive, but will also be easier to repair and more durable. Package units are designed for light to moderate usage, while built-up units are designed for heavy to severe service. A machine shop or fabricating shop will use an integral-package hoist, while a Steel Mill or NASA would use a built-up unit to meet durabilty, performance, and repairability requirements.
