Electric Chain Hoists

The Yale range of electric hoists offers choice, variety and quality and can be supplied hook suspended or with a monorail trolley (manual push/pull, manual geared or electric). They are available in capacities from 125kg up to 10 tonne (10,000kg) through 5 different types of hoist that are all great quality hoists with their own unique key features.

We are a Yale authorised Master Distributor which means we can supply and/or install any Yale electric hoist at a competitive price.

Yale are part of the CMCO Group (Columbus McKinnon Corporation) which is one of the world's largest and most professional lifting equipment manufacturers. All of the CE/UKCA certified Yale electric hoists in the Columbus McKinnon range are available to us and presented to you here. The hoists manufactured by both CM or Yale provide an excellent range that can generally cover the majority of electric chain hoist enquiries.

With the Stahl ST line of electric chain hoists you can find capacities starting from as little as 125kg all the way up to 5 tonne, with 500kg, 1 tonne, 1.6 tonne, 2 tonne, 2.5 tonne and 3.2 tonne models in between. All of which can be supplied with hook suspension, or trolley mounted to either a manual push/pull beam trolley or an electrically powered beam trolley (this can also be single speed or dual speed), as standard.

Varying other features are also available such as Atex protection, foot mounting or rigid suspension point for fixed execution, as well as low-headroom and articulating trolley variants also being possible.

The Delta electric hoist range is typical of what you would expect to see as a standard electric hoist, with all of the common features and options, with capacities up to 5 tonne, but where Delta are different to the greater majority of hoist manufacturers is that they also offer a very compact and lightweight battery powered chain hoist. Though that battery hoist is limited to a maximum capacity of 500kg, it can easily become a standard kit component of site equipment because of the lack of need for a wired power source.

If you are in the market for a battery powered chain hoist, but need a greater capacity than 0.5 tonne, then we also offer the CM BatteryStar Battery Powered Hoist which has a 1 tonne maximum capacity.

The complete and comprehensive range of Hadef electric hoists and trolley combinations; from fixed execution or hook suspended, to manual trolleys, to fully powered in all motions, Hadef offer it all with unique custom designs or one-off completely bespoke being second nature. If there is a possibility of an electrically powered hoisting solution, then a Hadef hoist can be offered.

Capacity options start at 125kg on the 62/05 series and can be offered all the way up to 50 tonne on 10 falls of chain with the 29/06 UL-EE ultra-low headroom hoist, or 100 tonnes on the 66/04 AK standard headroom line.

Here we have listed the Liftket Star Speedline range of electric hoists, which in the name gives indication that the Speedline are the more common and readily available Liftket hoists with capacities available between 125kg and 5 tonne. But, we can also offer the full Liftket range such as the "Star Complete" which is a more customisable variant of the Speedline hoist range, the "Liftket B13" with capacity options starting from 4 tonne, increasing up 12.5 tonne or the "Power Liftket" which is available in capacities from 8 tonne up to 25 tonne, all of which are available with a stationary mounting point (such as an eye, lug or hook) or with an electric beam trolley.

LiftingSafety are compiling a collection of hoists for use or potential use on wind turbines from lifting equipment manufacturers all over the globe. We offer both electric chain hoists suitable for offshore use. Used for maintenance and some times and permanent installation. The key feature about a chain hoist used on offshore wind turbines is the lifting speed and the weather protection. The chain hoist must be able to lift the load faster than the see can raise (sea swell) as per the industries acceptable sea state conditions. We offer turbine hoists from Columbus McKinnon and from Verlinde though will be adding to this category in the near future.

Verlinde electric hoists are of excellent quality and are extremely customizable, based on the requirements of the user, with capacity options from 60kg up to 10000kg. Verlinde manufacture their hoisting equipment in France under the Verlinde brand, but also for other brands such as Kone Cranes, which are basically the same hoist with a different badge. As with the Kito hoists, the range of Verlinde electric hoists are more costly than some other electric hoists though the range is far greater than most, as is their ability to modify a particular hoist to suit the customers specific working environment.

Kito electric hoists and trolley hoist combinations are available from 60kg up to 20 tonne with a wide range of customisations also available. Within the lifting equipment industry it is generally accepted that Kito electric hoists are probably the best quality available, with a wide range of styles and options a Kito hoist can be supplied to suit almost any application and environment.The Kito collection of hoists really are a superb quality range and are designed for heavy duty industrial use, they are more specialized and probably better quality than most electric hoisting units presently available, though if you want the best, please expect them to be a little more costly.
