Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between a chain block and a lever hoist?

Chain blocks are ideal for vertical lifting, using a hand chain for smooth, stable control. Lever hoists allow for horizontal pulling and angled tensioning, offering more directional flexibility.

Can I use a chain hoist for overhead engine lifting?

Yes. Chain hoists are commonly used for suspended engine work, especially in vehicle service pits and tight workshop areas where floor space is limited.

Are all hoists load-rated and compliant?

Absolutely. All our lifting gear is clearly WLL-stamped and meets AS/NZS safety standards for trade and industrial use.
