Product Overview

The stainless steel hand chain hoist pairs a compact, corrosion-resistant body with double pawls as standard, delivering dependable manual lifting in the most demanding environments. Available in capacities from 1 ton to 5 tons and built to EN 13157, it operates from -40°C to +55°C, making it ideal for chemical, topside and subsea hoisting, drug processing, food processing, sewage treatment and other high-cleanliness industries.

It comes with calibrated grade S(6) 316L stainless steel load chain, hand chain and bottom hook, or grade T(8) load chain to BS EN 818-7 DT9 with corrosion-coated hand chain — see the specification below to confirm which fits your installation. Every unit features a 360° rotating stainless steel hook with safety latch, plus over 600 hours of salt spray protection to ASTM B117. Note: stainless steel bottom hooks are only available for 500 kg and 1 tonne units.



Key Features

01

Corrosion Resistant Design

316L stainless steel load chain, hand chain and hooks with 600+ hours salt spray protection for excellent corrosion resistance.

02

Wide Temperature Range

Reliable operation from -40°C to +55°C, suitable for demanding temperature conditions.

03

Safe & Reliable Lifting

Double pawls and 360° rotating hooks with safety latches ensure safer and more reliable lifting.

04

Hygienic & Versatile Applications

Compliant with EN13157 / ASTM11, ideal for chemical, pharmaceutical, food, sewage treatment, and topside & subsea lifting applications.


Why Choose a Stainless Steel Hand Chain Hoist?

Not every lifting job needs electric power or powered travel. Where a load is lifted and lowered at fixed stations in corrosive or high-cleanliness environments — chemical plants, specialist topside and subsea hoisting, drug and food processing, sewage treatment — a stainless steel hand chain hoist does the job reliably, at lower cost and with less to maintain than an electric unit. It is built for exactly that: dependable, corrosion-proof fixed-point lifting.


Which configuration fits your job? If maximum corrosion resistance is the priority, choose the calibrated grade S(6) 316L stainless steel load chain, hand chain and bottom hook. If higher strength for heavier duties is what you need, choose the calibrated grade T(8) load chain to BS EN 818-7 DT9 with corrosion-coated hand chain. Built to EN 13157, it offers 1–5 tonnes capacity, a -40°C to +55°C operating range, double pawls as standard and a 360° rotating stainless steel hook with safety latchCompare: DFCompare: DKS

How to Select the Right Stainless Steel Hand Chain Hoist

01

Confirm your environment demands stainless

If the site is corrosive or high-cleanliness — chemical plants, offshore topside/subsea, drug, food processing or sewage treatment — a 316L stainless steel hoist is the required choice, not an option.

02

Match capacity to load

Choose from 1–5 tonnes based on your heaviest rated load, plus safety margin. Note: stainless steel bottom hooks are only available for 500 kg and 1 tonne units.

03

Select your chain configuration

For maximum corrosion resistance, choose the calibrated grade S(6) 316L stainless load chain, hand chain and bottom hook; for higher strength duties, choose grade T(8) load chain to BS EN 818-7 DT9 with corrosion-coated hand chain.

04

Check operating conditions and standards**

Built to EN 13157, it works from -40°C to +55°C with 600+ hours of salt spray protection to ASTM B117, double pawls as standard and a 360° rotating stainless steel hook with safety latch — verify these suit your site before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions


What makes the stainless steel hand chain hoist different from a standard hoist?

It is built specifically for corrosive and high-cleanliness environments — chemical plants, offshore topside and subsea hoisting, drug processing, food processing and sewage treatment — with 316L stainless steel construction and double pawls as standard.


What capacities does it come in?

1 to 5 tonnes, built to EN 13157. Please note that stainless steel bottom hooks are only available for 500 kg and 1 tonne units.


What temperature range does it operate in?

From -40°C to +55°C, covering outdoor, offshore and cold-environment applications.


What chain options are available?

Calibrated grade S(6) 316L stainless steel load chain, hand chain and bottom hook for maximum corrosion resistance, or calibrated grade T(8) load chain to BS EN 818-7 DT9 with corrosion-coated hand chain for higher strength duties.


What voltage does the DLFP support?

A stainless steel hook with stainless steel safety latch rotates freely through 360°, and the unit provides over 600 hours of salt spray protection in accordance with ASTM B117.
