The category includes manual and electric chain hoists, lever hoists, wire-rope hoists, and jib cranes. Selection follows load capacity, lift height, and use frequency.

About this category
Hoist selection is not just by load capacity; use frequency must match the duty-cycle classification (M3-M8 per ISO 4301-1). Manual chain hoists use a hand chain that drives an internal gear train, carrying 500-20 000 kg. They suit occasional use at sites without power and are light and portable. Electric chain hoists use a pendant or remote control and work far faster, carrying 125-5000+ kg for recurring use. Lever hoists are shorter and lighter, built for horizontal pulling or angled lifting, carrying 250-9000 kg. Wire-rope hoists offer longer lift distance (10-50 m) and serve tall-column sites and shipyards. Jib cranes carry a 180-360° rotating boom with a suspended hoist and serve local assembly stations by moving parts within a defined radius (3-8 m). Scissor lifts, which raise workers, are listed under Access Platforms. Scheduled certified inspection, inspection certification, and operating-hour logs are required per local regulations and the manufacturer's instructions; intervals may be shorter than 12 months for lifting accessories under the applicable regulations; scissor lifts that raise workers are listed under Access Platforms. Specifications follow FEM 9.511, ASME B30.16, and EN 14492-2 for powered hoists, and EN 13157 for hand-powered hoists.
