Lever Hoists
Compact lever hoists (ratchet pullers) for lifting, pulling and tensioning in any position, with capacities from 250 kg to 9000 kg.
Lever hoists
The lever hoist is the rigger's universal tool: it lifts, pulls and tensions in any orientation, operated with one hand on the ratchet lever. The RPD range covers 750 kg through 3000 kg up to 9000 kg — from strapping loads on a trailer to positioning machinery during installation.
For pure vertical lifting from a fixed point, a chain block gives more lift per effort; for long-distance pulls, a wire-rope pulling hoist has no chain-length limit. Contact us if you are unsure about capacity or chain length for the task.
Frequently asked questions
What can I use a lever hoist for?
Lifting, pulling, tensioning and positioning in any orientation — horizontal, vertical or angled. Typical duties: machinery installation, aligning structures, tensioning and securing heavy cargo, rigging on site without power.
Which capacity should I choose?
Rate the hoist by the actual force in the chain, not just the load weight — in angled pulls and tensioning the force can differ from the load's weight. The RPD range covers 750 to 9000 kg; when in doubt, step one size up.
Lever hoist or chain block?
A chain block only lifts vertically but does it with less operator effort over large heights. The lever hoist trades some lifting comfort for universality — it works in any direction and doubles as a tensioner.
