Hand Chain Hoist, Manual Chain Hoist

Hand chain hoists, also known as chain blocks, are devices used to lift and lower heavy loads using a chain. Lightweight and durable, hand chain hoists contain two wheels which the chain is wound around. When the chain is pulled, it winds around the wheels and begins to lift the item that is attached to the rope or chain via a hook. Hand chain hoists can also be attached to lifting slings or chain bags to lift the load more evenly.
