About Industrial Hoists

Industrial hoists are lifting and pulling devices that use some form of line to move or lift a load. Industrial hoists are primarily used for vertical lifting.  There are a number of standard specs to keep in mind when selecting a hoist for the application at hand; notably load capacity, lift length, maximum lift speed, and whether a pulley block is needed.
