Product Information
A wire rope hoist utilizes wire rope as the lifting medium by wrapping it around a grooved drum. It can be powered manually, electrically, or pneumatically, making it versatile for various applications.
Applications:
Wire rope hoists are commonly used in production environments due to their
ability to perform lifts quickly and at higher heights. They are suitable for
severe duty classifications such as Class D, E, and F cranes. Wire rope hoists
provide smooth and quiet operation, outperforming chain hoists in speed,
especially for capacities of 10 tons or more.
Benefits:
- Fast lifting speed
- High lifting heights
- Suitable for severe duty classifications
- Smooth and quiet operation
Disadvantages:
- May require more maintenance compared to chain hoists
- The higher initial cost for electric models
Product Usage Instructions

WHAT IS A WIRE ROPE HOIST
Wire rope hoists use wire rope as the lifting medium and perform the lift by wrapping the wire rope cable around a grooved drum. Wire rope hoists can be powered manually, electrically, or pneumatically (by air).
APPLICATIONS
Wire rope is a popular choice in production environments because it can perform lifts at a faster speed, and higher heights, and can also be rated for severe duty classifications—Class D, E, and F cranes. Wire rope hoists offer smooth and quiet operation and can perform lifts at a faster speed than chain hoists. They typically dominate the market at capacities of 10 tons or more.
BENEFITS
- Offers very fast lifting speeds
- Can be rated for severe duty classifications
- Dominates the market at 10-tons and above
- A quieter and smoother lifting operation
DISADVANTAGES
- Wire rope may not be as durable as a chain in certain instances
- Wire rope drum occupies more space than a chain hoist
- More expensive than chain hoists
