As one of the industry leaders in electric hoist technology, it is no surprise to see Yale making waves with its Lodestar line up. The Model J offers plenty of advantages, including a 500kg capacity and an 8 metres per minute lifting speed.
Durability is an important asset of any lifting equipment, not least a hoist which will be expected to raise and lower loads over intensive cycles of use. The Lodestar Model J should exceed expectations in this respect, with it tough alloy exterior, well lubricated gearbox and IP 65 rated control pendant coming together to create a design that is hard to beat.
The motor is a 3 phase, single speed unit that provides better productivity levels than some of the more affordable examples in the range. The load limit settings can be adjusted according to your needs and the Model J should be a swift yet safe addition to your operations.
Since you can select from a full complement of lifting accessories right here on our site, you can order a Lodestar Model J alongside the add-ons needed to get it working for you more effectively.
Lifting Gear Direct can even offer gantry systems that will work wonders when paired with this product.
