Introducing the Air Chain Hoist
Lifting Reimagined
Ingersoll Rand has been the leader in pneumatic lifting solutions for decades, offering reliable alternatives to conventional electric hoists. Our Air Chain Hoist is engineered for high-demand environments where precision and durability are paramount:
Designed for vertical lifting, oblique lifting, and horizontal pulling, our hoist delivers the precision that operators trust. From auto assembly lines to nuclear facilities, it ensures reliable performance in critical applications.
A safe alternative to electric hoists, our air-powered design eliminates spark and ignition risks. Ideal for paint booths, oil and gas, ammonia plants, and maritime or chemical operations where electricity poses hazards.
Feather the throttle for smooth, controlled movements that outperform electric hoists. Perfect for delicate assembly, alignment tasks, and precision positioning in demanding applications.
Built for nonstop performance, our hoist handles unlimited starts and stops without overheating or motor burnout, making it ideal for continuous, high-repetition lifting tasks.
Capable of handling everything from small components to massive industrial loads, with modular configurations supporting weights exceeding 100 tons for ultimate versatility.
A simple yet efficient gear-based air motor that reduces friction, extends lifespan, and allows for easy capacity adjustments with interchangeable components.
