JET Lever Hoist JLH-150WO-20 1-1/2 Ton 20 Foot Lift Overload Protection (3,520 Lb Capacity Grade 100 Chain Short Handle Industrial Rigging Tool)

JET JLH-150WO-20 1-1/2 Ton Lever Hoist With Overload Protection and 20 Foot Lift

The JET JLH-150WO-20 1-1/2 Ton Lever Hoist functions as an industrial manual lifting and pulling winch engineered to position, tension, and elevate heavy structural loads up to 3,520 lbs. Equipped with a 20 ft. lift height and a 13-1/5 in. headroom profile, this 31.0 lb. hoist utilizes a factory-set slip-clutch overload protection system that prevents lifts exceeding rated capacity. Outfitted with a corrosion-resistant Grade 100 7/25 in. plated load chain, a Weston-style double pawl brake, caged needle bearings, 360-degree rotating alloy hooks, and a compact 10-1/4 in. lever handle requiring 75 lbs. of pull force, this tool enables riggers, steel erectors, and plant mechanics to operate at any angle in low-headroom spaces.

Best Used For:

• Confined Space Pipe Alignment & Rigging: Tensioning and aligning heavy industrial steel pipes and valves in low-headroom mechanical rooms using a short 10-1/4 in. handle.
• Structural Steel Beam Positioning: Elevating and holding 1-1/2 ton structural steel beams square for bolt alignment and welding tasks.
• Horizontal Machinery & Equipment Pulling: Dragging heavy industrial production machinery across factory floors using a 360-degree swivel hook rigging setup.

Key Performance & Safety Features

• Slip-Clutch Overload Protection: Factory-calibrated slip clutch disengages drive gearing when load limits exceed 3,520 lbs. to safeguard gear mechanisms.
• Grade 100 Plated Load Chain: High-tensile 7/25 in. zinc-plated load chain provides 20 percent higher tensile strength than standard Grade 80 chain while resisting jobsite rust.
• Weston-Style Double Pawl Brake: Dual ratchet pawls split braking force across opposite sides of the gear assembly to ensure load retention during hold cycles.
• High-Efficiency Caged Needle Bearings: Caged needle bearing supports on the load sheave reduce mechanical drag, requiring only 75 lbs. of handle pull force at full capacity.
• Compact 10-1/4 Inch Lever Handle: Short lever length enables high mechanical advantage and precise ratcheting inside tight pipe chases and stud bays.
• 360-Degree Swivel Alloy Hooks: Heat-treated alloy steel top and bottom hooks rotate completely to allow rigging attachment from any operational angle.

What's Included

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: When using the JET JLH-150WO-20 for horizontal pulling or inverted rigging, ensure the 7/25 in. Grade 100 load chain hangs completely straight through the load sheave without twists. Aligning the chain path prevents binding against internal guide plates, preserving smooth ratcheting and extending brake pawl life.
