JET L100-250WO-10 1/4-Ton Hand Chain Hoist with Overload Protection & 10-Foot Lift

The JET L100-250WO-10 L-100 Series 1/4-Ton Hand Chain Hoist is a compact overhead manual lifting device engineered for positioning machinery, hoisting steel components, and rigging loads in tight low-headroom environments. Featuring a 550-pound rated working load capacity and a 10-foot lift height with a 9-13/16 inch minimum headroom clearance, this industrial hoist incorporates a slip-clutch overload protection system that prevents lifting beyond rated capacity limits. Outfitted with JET's patented fused mechanical load brake, Grade 100 corrosion-resistant 0.16 x 0.47 inch plated load chain, double-sealed ball bearing load sheaves, and 360-degree swiveling drop-forged safety hooks, this 8.6-pound hoist meets rigorous industrial safety requirements.

Best Used For:

  • Low-Headroom Industrial Overhead Lifting: Hoisting motors, pumps, and mechanical components inside tight plant maintenance spaces.
  • Confined Space Machinery Positioning: Raising and aligning heavy equipment where low 9-13/16 inch headroom clearance is required.
  • Overload-Protected Plant Rigging: Executing safety-critical lifts where slip-clutch protection prevents accidental equipment overloading.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Factory Slip-Clutch Overload Protection: Prevents operators from lifting damaging loads exceeding the 550-pound working load limit.
  • Patented Single-Piece Fused Brake System: Fuses mechanical brake components into a single unit backed by a lifetime replacement warranty.
  • Grade 100 Corrosion-Resistant Plated Load Chain: Heat-treated 0.16 x 0.47 inch alloy chain delivers 20% higher tensile strength than Grade 80 chain.
  • Compact 9-13/16 Inch Headroom Frame: Low-profile all-steel body operates efficiently in restricted vertical clearance areas.
  • Double-Sealed Ball Bearing Load Sheaves: Sealed precision bearings support internal sheaves to optimize mechanical efficiency and reduce hand chain pull.
  • Overload-Indicating 360-Degree Swivel Hooks: Drop-forged alloy steel hooks rotate 360 degrees and stretch slowly under excessive force as a visual warning.

What's Included

  • (1) JET L100-250WO-10 1/4-Ton Hand Chain Hoist with Overload Protection & 10-Foot Lift
