Performance for Entertainment Rigging

With a 1 ton load capacity and a 16 feet per minute lift speed, this hoist is well-suited for moving lighting, audio, and scenic loads where predictable motion and repeatable cues matter. The 80' lift provides additional reach for taller trims and larger rooms, while flexible handles support easier handling during load-in and load-out.

For durability in frequent transport and repeated use, the hoist features a durable cast iron chain guide, an IP55 sealed body for improved protection against dust and water ingress, and a nickel-plated, grade 80 load chain. Low profile upper and lower limits require no adjustment, helping reduce setup time and keep operation consistent from venue to venue. A 5yr brake warranty supports long-term confidence in critical braking performance.

Standards and Certifications

The hoist is UL1340/CSA 22.2 compliant and meets ANSI E 1.6-2, IGVW SQP2-2018, and CE rated requirements, making it a strong fit for professional entertainment rigging applications that prioritize recognized safety and performance standards.
